I would love something that allowed accurate track plans with FastTrack on a Mac or iPad. Lionel should be building that into LCS!

That's the only game in town unless you run Parallels with a Windows installation.

It's a good idea to the switch accuracy in the software by designing and then temporarily assembling something like a passing siding off a mainline.

Lionel O and O27 track layouts have variances in the turn length by software.

Railmodeller has checked out against real builds except for FasTrack O60 switches.
