  2. Model railroad layout - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_railroad_layout

    Part of an HO scale model railroad layout. In model railroading, a layout is a diorama containing scale track for operating trains. The size of a layout varies, from small shelf-top designs to ones that fill entire rooms, basements, or whole buildings. Attention to modeling details such as structures and scenery is common. Simple layouts are ...

    The software connects to the Hornby Elite DCC controller or the later eLink controller, which is an interface between the laptop or PC which runs RailMaster and the layout and allows for the controls of trains, points, signals, turntables and uncouplers from a single screen.

  4. Rocrail - Wikipedia

    The server program runs on a computer connected to the layout by one of the standard computer interface setups, and supports many command stations. The Rocrail client connects to the server over a network. The client can also be used by itself to plan layouts. There is no need for the server or the layout to be running to edit plans.

    C/MRI (Computer/Model Railroad Interface) is a set of electronic modules that allow a computer to monitor and control real world devices, including those used in conjunction with model railroads. C/MRI was first introduced by Bruce Chubb in the February 1985 issue of the Model Railroader magazine. It appeared again with a four-part series ...

    T-TRAK (all letters capitalized) is a modular model railroad system based on standards for module size, track placement, track interface, and electrical connections. The standards allow for a wide range of flexibility in design yet still maintain interoperability with all modules built per the standards.

  9. Model Railroader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_Railroader

    A longstanding philosophy of modeling is manifest in its editorial features of layout design and operation, in which the model is viewed as a three-dimensional and temporal compression of the real world, so that, for example, the motive power, freight, trackage and scenery of a real-world railroad are formed into a layout which captures the ...
