From the first sketch to a detailed 3D layout with scenery, and everything in between.
Drag track straight onto your virtual baseboard and click the pieces together. Move or turn whole sections, and bend flexible track exactly the way you want it. Context menus show you at a glance what you can do where you are.
Not merely a viewer that shows your design in perspective, but an editor built from the ground up for working in three dimensions. Rather work in 2D for a while? Switch back and forth whenever it suits you.
Design your dream layout with the track of your favourite make. Mix and match without limits: take the best turnouts from one brand and combine them with the finest flexible track from another, in one design.
Finish your layout with mountains, buildings, roads, trees and grass, all of it rendered for real. You can even watch the trees and the grass move in the wind.
Let the computer check that your design adds up. Stop a big locomotive getting stuck in a tunnel later, or a curve being too tight. TRAX keeps an eye on whether your layout meets the main NEM and NMRA standards.
Show the world what you have built. Publish your track plan here on the platform, or use the free viewer to put your design straight on your own website.
