Hornby Track Master

Hornby Track Master is a software tool to design Hornby Railways train tracks.

Gameplay

Hornby Track-Master is a birds eye 2D Planning tool, distinct from Hornby Virtual Railway (HVR). HVR^{[note 1]} uses a 3D Planning Environment in which one can plan, build and test a layout. However, being released many years ago, it has fairly low quality graphics.

Hornby Track-Master, on the other hand, also allows for the development of a shopping list for every thing needed to build a track, but it has no 3D whereas HVR does.

Users select pieces of track from lists and place them where they wish. Track-Master uses birds-eye view to work. Track, platforms, turntables etc. can be added. Once completed the software develops a printable shopping list.^{[note 2]}
