Rocrail: An open source and accessible Model Railroad Control System for controlling your model railroads with ease

Rocrail is an open source application that gives you the ability to control your model train layout(s) from one or more computers easily because it works on a wide variety of platforms. The utility employs a server and client that work hand in hand via protocols, but it’s not necessary to run them on the same computer (which can save your resources and speed if you happen to have a slower working system).

With Rocrail, you can control the way your locomotives are controlled in great detail, and you can even create staging blocks divided into multiple sections with it; making Rocrail a perfect utility for all professional model train users.
