Unfortunately I mostly use a Mac nowadays. So I had to try a few packages for that platform. RailModeller is the better of the two I tried, but it doesn't hold a candle to RR-Track. It doesn't let you design grades (that I can find) and it is a lot more awkward to move sections of track around when you are working thru trial-and-error designs. But I haven't found a better product on the Mac platform yet.....
There is a lot more to cover here but I'll let someone else chime in.

Any suggestions for track design software for garden railroads?
