You make a model railway three times: first on paper, then on the table, and only then does it come to life. TRAX is there for all three. From the first track on your screen to the last train rolling into the depot at night.

Every step builds on the one before. What you draw in TRAX3D, TRAX Workshop already knows when you start building, and TRAX Control when you start running. You draw your layout once, and it goes with you.
Design your layout with the real track of Märklin, Fleischmann, Roco, Peco and dozens of other makers. See heights, grades, tunnels and bridges in 3D, and put scenery, buildings and overhead line round them. Free, in your browser.

What you design in TRAX3D, you make real here. A building plan that explains step by step how to build YOUR layout, overhead line to print yourself that fits your tracks exactly, and personal advice when you get stuck.

TRAX Control reads your layout from TRAX3D, so you do not have to draw it again. Drive with your phone, let trains run their own duties and operate your layout together with your club, safely interlocked.
No redrawing, no second program that does not know your layout. The plan, the building plan and the control are all about the same layout.
Your layout, your purchases, your licences and your Community Creds are kept together, on every TRAX site.
TRAX grows with what model railroaders ask for: on the forum, in tickets and in ideas everybody can vote on.
Drawing is free. Everything you draw goes with you to building and running.
