Hi Everyone,

We got a Mac awhile ago. I had previously used SCARM on the Windows platform, but now I’m wishing to do all on the Mac. I downloaded the free versions of both Railmodeler Express and Empire Express. I can see advantages to each, but I’m interested in everyone else’s experiences with these softwares. Which one do you like?

I hadn’t heard of either program. I use XTrackCAD, https://xtrkcad-fork.sourceforge.net/Wikka/HomePage

Hi Everyone,

I looked up XtrackCAD online and found out it has a Mac version. I might download that later. Thanks for the tip Lost in A2. Anyone else have an opinion?

Hello All,

Mac user since 1986.

I use RailmodelerPro and have been very satisfied.

For true CAD on a Mac, Canvas X Draw can’t be beat!

You can “subscribe” or “purchase outright” for a one-time price.

Hope this helps.
