CSXT576 (NCSTL Emblem) was renumbered back to CSXT527 and has been confirmed by video and photos. The number 576 was temporary for only a one day event in Nashville yesterday.
We've renumbered the unit and leaving it on the site as we've been informed the unit still has the NCSTL Emblem on it.
Suspended reporting on AMTK42 as it's used for training at the Beech Grove facility (News Link)

Removed all of the NS SD70 units. All have been placed in storage for potential rebuilds to SD70ACC units. Note that even if some hit the road to a rebuild facility that we won't add them back for a temporary move.

On the mobile apps when viewing a locomotive; it will now show the last 20 reports (previously was the last 10).
Per NSDash9.com the NS F-Units are being renumbered to avoid a conflict with the NS AC44C6M rebuilds. They'll be dropping the leading "4" from the unit numbers.
Effective today the NS numbers within HU have been renumbered to match this
The timezone issue appears be the opposite of what the initial reports of the bug. Thus the problem was with the web version vs. the mobile apps. It appeared when viewing the details of a report and only if you're timezone was other than EST. This has been resolved. If you experience any other issues please contact me.

We've had a handful of reports from users where the mobile app is showing the report times off by an hour. I have yet to replicate this on our iOS or the Android devices/emulators.
If you're experiencing this please email support and supply the type of hardware device you have, OS version and your timezone. It's likely related to DST on a specific OS version so the more info I can receive the faster I can replicate and resolve it.

One of our iOS testers discovered the map icons on the 2.3 release are rotated 90 deg in the wrong direction. I'm queuing up 2.4 to the App Store today to resolve the issue. The Android app is not effected by this issue.
I'm opening up beta testing of the HeritageUnits.com iOS App to the first 10 users who contact me. Please contact me via the "Contact" page on the website and select "iOS".
Note that you will need to have Apple's "TestFlight" app installed on your iPhone/iPad to be part of the beta (free via store).
Couple notes with the next release (these are also included in the next release of Android which is days away from publishing)
* Train symbol database will be publicly available and will accept community edits
* Migration to Google Maps on iOS devices (icons emulate web version).
* Near By feature is now configurable
* Visual indicators are now shown when listing reports

iOS/Apple - Heritage Units (v2.1) app is now available for download via the app store (link).
v2.1 - Release Notes
Resolved issue where some users received a "WebApiException". Note that you may need to login again if you where experiencing this issue. If the issue continues after the update please contact support.
Photos are now larger when viewing locomotives
When viewing an individual locomotive there is now a new "Hide" button on the top right. This will add the locomotive to your hidden list when used.
Buttons have better look-n-feel than previous version
iOS/Apple - I'm working on resolving the random bug where you may receive a "WebAPI" error. I've identified the issue and will be pushing out a resolution to the Apple App Store (v2.1) to hopefully resolve the problem. Note that after the update the app will likely ask you to login again. If you're currently receiving this error (v2.0 the latest deployed version); the easiest workaround is to uninstall/install the app and this will reset the underlying security token.
Android - Development is 95% complete. Note that this is a major rewrite for the app and will mirror the iOS. In the upcoming release; Android notification feature will be available to everyone for free. Along with many other new features. I will release this app once the iOS issue is resolved.
Any questions please contact me at the contact page on the site.
