I am looking for reviews/recommendations for track planning software. Planning on using this for a future 16' x 24' 3-rail layout, using Atlas track, with multiple levels, grades, using a combination of sectional and flex track. Also hidden staging with Lionel O-27 42" diameter sectional track and turnouts.
I have dabbled with the free version of SCARM and Atlas TPS (same thing). While it is functional, I find it a bit clunky.
Also proficient with AutoCad.
Before I purchase a license for SCARM, would like opinions on other software packages.
Thanks,
Jim

Forgot to mention that is the size of my layout and RRtrack has both atlas and lionel track. The atlas allows you to flex and cut to length. It was also nice that the library included the MTH bridges I was using.
