I use both the LIRR and NYC Subway versions all the time. I hope they aren't shut down.

NJ Transit too. Likewise, really hope they don't shut down until Apple integrates their functionality.

I mean, they don't need constant connections to servers or anything, but they do need to update their schedules every so often. I don't know if they download from Embark servers, or if it's directly from transportation sites, but I would suspect the former.
