I have been using Rail Modeler Pro on my apple for many years and found it versatile and comprehensive though the learning curve was a little stiff and kept me from ever being able to use some of its features.
However, I have become a PC user now and need to switch software to PC compatible software.
I am an O-Gauge person who fits my layout, each year, into my wife's Christmas Village. We have switched to Gargreaves track this year but still use fastrack for the parts of the layout which are not available.
next years alignment will include two different levels of alignment with a grade in between. We also use the software to design all of the elevations used in the village; probably about 15.
Features in Rail Modeler pro i liked but have not found in other software
Connect tracks: either with sectional tracks or flex track
layers on which a base elevation can be specified.
I seek your advice as to what PC program will offer these features and, despite the learning curve, which program is the richest in features.
