Is there any free online track planning software that acutaly deals with sectional 3 rail track?   Trying to plan a new layout before ever building the benchwork and spending $$ for track.   Thanks   Mike

Believe atlas and MTH both have a software that you can download free

Go to www.AtlasO.com  Click on the RightTrack Software link on the home page. download the software. Only caveat: only atlas track available. Another program is AnyRail. go to www.anyrail.com  and dowload the trial version. Has lots of track libraries from the manufacturers, only caveat with the trial version is there is a limit to how many pieces of track can be used before the program stops. 

There is also Xtrakcad. I don't reccomend it.  The MTH software isn't free. It's included on the Railware CD that comes in the starter sets. The CD can be obtained from Ebay, as a lot of them are sold there. 

Hope this gets you started----
