# Amtrak Status Boards
Amtrak Status Boards, or AMTK Status, is a desktop front-end for accessing Dixieland Software's [station status boards](https://dixielandsoftware.net/Amtrak/solari/).
## Background
This was intended to solve a rather awkward dilemma. While I much prefer PWAs, I used to have a bunch of standalone web apps for stations that I view on Virtual Railfan. This front-end was intended to solve that dilemma by accessing all stations from a single application using a modern, cleaner interface.
