SD40-2 Locomotive Cab We bought the cab of a real SD40-2 cab from a salvage yard (all 7 1/2 tons of it) and set it up in our parking lot. Visitors can climb aboard and see our restoration/remodel in progress. RailDriver Desktop Train Cab Controller Demonstration Participants can test our RailDriver prototypical controller with one of three simulation programs and take home a free route for Microsoft Train Simulator or Trainz TRS2004.

RailDriver Cyclopedia Demonstration Test any of our four historic cyclopedias. Open a high resolution drawing of your favorite locomotive or car and use our Scale Print software to print out precise working schematics in your modeling scale. And More Get a sneak preview of our new products including the full sized AAR105 control stand.
