Rocomotion is a unique combination of hardware and software for controlling your model railways by computer. The intuitive graphical user interface provides control of locomotives, turnouts, signals, and other components.

The CD that comes with the set includes, apart from the Rocomotion 5.5 software, Trainprogrammer™ and TrainAnimator™ software. TrainProgrammer™ is for quick and easy programming of your decoders. TrainAnimator™ is a useful tool to, for example, process your own digital photos of your locomotives. After importing into Rocomotion, these images are incorporated in the user interface. A selection of pre-processed digital images of our locomotive highlights is also available on the CD. We will also provide additional images via the Roco homepage, in the details view of the respective locomotives. To download, just click the "Rocomotion Image" button. Please bear in mind that images of our latest locomotives first have to be created. We will, however, continuously update and extend the archive.

You can also download and test the Rocomotion software free of charge from our site.

After installation, you will have access to full Rocomotion offline-mode functionality. Please note that the actual control of your model railway system via Rocomotion is only possible in combination with the necessary hardware (interface and other accessories).

Rocomotion (hardware plus software on CD) is available from authorised hobby shops under product number 10785 as of June.
