Modeling applications provide professionals with a way of creating digital representations of their designs before developing them in real life. These programs have been deployed in the building industry, engineering structures and now with this tool, it is possible to develop train model layout on more and more computers. This applicationĀ provides the users with extensive tools for creating manual and automatic models, controlling trains via blocks, route, schedules and other complex patterns. It allows trains to be controlled in a completely manual manner, or in a fully automated way, or by a mix of the two previously described modes.
The program uses a server-client protocol to perform its tasks. The server and client versions can be on different workstations in the same network. The web-based interface allows the user to create layouts from any computer in the home network or other locations on the internet. The server which uses multiple controllers allows the client to connect over the network and create layouts. It gives the user the freedom to configure and control the movement of locomotives using modular designs, R2Rnet network for creating routes for roaming trains and activate various command stations. This program is an efficient model railroad control system and addresses specialized users.
