#Railmodeller express software#
So, if you're looking for track planning software that will run on a Mac, there is one you can use without running Wine or something similar so that you can use a program that wasn't designed to run on your machine. Railmodeller also has track libraries for some slot car systems, if you're into that sort of thing. I'm not sure how long Railmodeller has been around for, although I suspect it predates SCARM. It works more or less the same way as SCARM, although it works better, in fact it looks uncannily similar to it. Best of all, it is designed for Macs and it has Hornby Dublo 3 rail (not just track, but also accessories and buildings) in its library. It is available as a free limited version, Railmodeller Express (50 pieces of track only - unlike SCARM, they're upfront about this sort of thing) and an unlimited version, Railmodeller Pro, which cost around $60. It was then that I came across Railmodeller. Initially I decided to give up on track planning software altogether but, after a few weeks decided to have a look to see what else there was out there (I wasn't going to buy a licence for a program to run on a laptop that was running on borrowed time, nor did I want to pay money to a business that resorts to these sorts of tactics). Then I found that SCARM suddenly and without warning wouldn't let me edit what I had done and also wouldn't let me create anything much more than a double oval of track, rendering it rather useless. I did try running it using Wine, with mixed results, and ended up calling an old Windows laptop out of retirement to run SCARM instead, although the machine did run rather slowly. The main problem for me, as I use a Mac, was that it was a Windows program. It was also one of the few programs to include Hornby Dublo 3 rail in its track library (for those of you who haven't come across my other posts here, the bulk of my collection is Hornby Dublo 3 rail, and my planned layout will use vintage Dublo track). I first tried model railway planning software with SCARM, mainly because I wasn't sure if I even wanted to use software for this purpose, and as the availability of free software (which I mistakenly believed it to be, given the statements in their promotional material) was an added bonus.
