The renowned and easy-to-use TRAX computer program is back. Author
Jeff Geary explores the possibilities of controlling a model
railway in prototypical fashion, using operating points and signals
from a signal-box style lever frame. Mechanically interlocked
frames ensure that trains can only be signaled when the correct
route is set, and that conflicting routes cannot be set at the same
time. This new book also explains the principles of signaling, the
different types of signals and their significance, and how a
typical track diagram would be signaled. The application of these
principles to the model railway is then discussed. Included with
the book is a CD containing the third version of the TRAX program.
Additional facilities available in TRAX 3 include new track
formations, such as scissors crossings and transition curves, plus
extended drawing facilities. Also included in the program is a
scripting facility to develop and test timetabling, and utility
programs to make it possible to test locking on the lever frame.
