Windows will warn you the first time
The installer is not code signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen shows a blue Windows protected your PC box when you run it, and the publisher reads as unknown. That is expected.
Click More info, then Run anyway.
Get an email when there is a new version
I will send the release notes and what is coming next and nothing else, and every email has an unsubscribe link.
What happens to your address is set out in the privacy policy.
The questions worth answering honestly.
Which gauges?
OO, HO, TT:120, N, O, Z, HOm and T are on the list ready to pick, with track from Hornby, Peco, Atlas, Roco, PIKO, Märklin, Kato, Fleischmann, Tomix, Tillig, Rokuhan, Lionel, MTH, Lenz and T-Gauge. Ranges still being checked are tagged Preview in the catalogue. If yours is not there you can add a custom scale of your own by setting its gauge and ratio, and make custom track for it.
Do you offer refunds?
The free version is there so you can be sure before you pay, and there's no time limit on it. If you buy by mistake, or change your mind within 24 hours, email me and I'll discuss it. Refunds are at my discretion: the refunds policy has the detail.
Do I need an account or internet?
No account. The app runs entirely on your machine and your layouts are files you own. You'll need to be online once, to enter your licence key.
Who is behind it?
I am Mike and I live in the UK. I made LiveRail because the software I was planning my own layout in stopped helping when it got to the wiring. Support emails come back from me.
Try it before you spend anything.
The free version is not a demo with the good bits taken out. It is the whole app with a limit on size.
Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit. Linux beta: 64-bit, such as Ubuntu 22.04 or newer.
