    Default AnyRail track planning software

    This is my preferred tool for layout planning. Not only does it have an extensive library of different track brands, but also structures. I can draw roads, hills, and tunnels.

    One of my favorite bad weather occupations is to draw fantasy track plans.

    I used it to plan my various layouts. Here is an example of early planning for the Alpenbahn.

    It's the planning software of my choice as well.

    This was my plan I started off with, haven't really kept to it though.

    As long as I can model in N-scale, I know I'm not old

    My Alpenbahn layout evolved quite a bit from that shown above, also.

    AnyRail is my favorite too. Here's the track plan for my HCD sized layout.

    I moved to Anyrail a few years back because of the libraries and support. I mostly use it to check for grade and fitment, but my projects seldom match the plan.
