New member just got my RailPro in today.
« on: February 25, 2019, 04:44:57 PM »
I'm excited, I'll be installing a ring engineering decoder in an engine of mine and trying to run it on my DCC layout. From what I understand the power for the DCC layout can power my engine and I'll just use my railpro to control it. Very excited and will be hitting you guys up shortly with a bunch of questions I'm sure...

If you are familiar with DCC, you will love RailPro. It is nothing like DCC.  ;)

Run your train, not your brain. Get RailPro. It's a no-brainer.

Very nice layout...and Pennsy too!  :) I like the track planning program. Lots of detail.

It was done in AnyRail.  Really easy to use and I ended up with BOM which I used to order my track.  The buildings I already had.  It is a real area near New Holland/Lancaster in central PA.

All of the industries are real.

They must have redesigned Anyrail. I used it for three layouts a few years ago, but it didn't look as nice as yours does. I lost the program when my PC crashed last year. I'll have to see if I can download it again.

I think this was version 6.x.  You can call them and get your registration information to upgrade.  They are really good about it.

This is going to be a little interesting...

RailPro running RC controlled engines(s) on a DCC powered track and DCC trains running under a JMRI/SPROG 3 on the same track at the same time.

So, I can use the RailPro for wireless direct, or any combination of Android and iPhones with JMRI WiFi server to run my operations.

Pretty cool, huh?


I downloaded Anyrail, and Modelspoor is going to send me my upgrade license.
