Because of Covid, there are some delays in processing apps through the Google Play Store, if you are accessing this page from your Android device, you can install the latest version 3.5 directly from our website by clicking on the link below. To install from this link you will have to allow your Android device to "Install from unknown sources". This option varies with different Android versions but is usually found on the "Settings, Lock Screen and Security" page in Android. However if this is set to disallow unknown sources, you will usually be able to accept "Just this app" when you install it.

- Drive one or two locomotives from the Drive page. You can view the real scale speed for each, which comes from the back-emf of the motor. The windscreen view is just for effect - we don't have video from the locomotive (YET!)
- Manage the locomotives on your railroad Wi-Fi network, including adding new ones or removing them
- Organize two or more locomotives into Consists. Tune the individual locos in the consist. Consists appear for selection on the Drive page just like a single locomotive.
- View telemetry from your locomotive and tune its control parameters. Often the loco will run fine on the default factory settings but you can often improve. Also you will want to give each locomotive a name.
- Adjust the settings such as the network information, miles/kilometers, etc.
