Fast Clock
Posted by PRRAltoona on Sunday, December 28, 2014 2:32 PM

Is anyone aware of a free fast clock download for a PC using Windows 8?

Thanks!

Hi, PRR 

I don't operate with a fast clock, myself and as such I'm not aware of any that I have come across.

I am pretty sure there's one included with all the great applications that are included with JMRI.

http://jmri.sourceforge.net/

You can use many of the jmri functions without having an interface to your layout and I would imagine the fast clock would be one of those.

Welcome, and I envy you living in Altoona. I love that area! Ed

LIONS do not use fast clocks. LIONS run subway trains. Train leaves the terminal every 4 to 6 minutes. Clock (and timers) of LION stops when the layout is "paused" thus him can pick up schedule whenever him returns to the train room.

Hi! I model Altoona as well. Anyway, as to your question, there is a cell-phone app you can download for about a buck.
