Default Railway map for iPhone

My Zuta national rail map app has stopped working with the latest iOS.
Can anyone suggest a decent national rail map that still works? I don't
even need route planning or any other facilities, just something to
refer to while reading RAIL. Freight lines and junction names would be a
bonus, but stations and formations only would do. TOCs are an
irrelevance, as is the ability to locate my position, because I'll
probably switch that off to save the battery anyway.


So does no-one use one? Or does no-one else have an iPhone?


I just use a PDF map in the PDF Expert app, but mainly on the iPad rather
than on the iPhone (although I can access the same files on the iPhone). I
don't use a very detailed map, just the PDF version of the European Railway
Atlas by M G Ball. The PDF Expert app allows you to annotate the PDF file,
so you can record the lines done or whatever.

I also use the GB Outdoors app with OS maps to see the surrounding
countryside in more detail when travelling, or to see where I am using my
gps position.
