RailCommand Desktop

One desktop app for panel-based control and optional immersive 3D. Operate turnouts, signals, DCC trains, and dispatching from Avalonia panels on ordinary hardware; enter the 3D client only when you want the immersive experience.

RailCommand Desktop

Panel control for your railroad

The supported desktop edition. The native runtime runs your layout, your DCC hardware and your crew devices from one small install; the Unreal engine and its 3D content are no longer part of the download.

What does it work with?

RailCommand talks to your command station and detection bus directly. See every system it runs, and how far each one has been proven: field-tested on a layout, implemented and awaiting a layout, or train control only.
