SwitchList is a Mac program for automatically making lists of freight cars to switch on a model railroad.

If you have a small model railroad or a shelf layout and want a switch list program that’s easy to set up and easy to use, try it out!
Features:
Large print switch lists are easy to read, look handwritten, and look prototypical. Make your operators think you spent all night writing up switch lists!
Graphical user interface for setting up and printing out switch lists. No more editing cryptic files and searching through a sea of checkboxes.
Easy to adjust the available cargos for more realistic traffic flows. Adjusting operating sessions no longer means writing out a hundred new car cards!
Not all cars have to move each session, so movements appear more random. No more repetitive, identical operating sessions.
Allows realistic routing of different railroad’s empty freight cars to different staging yards. Empties leave in a realistic way.
Assigns freight cars based on owner of car. A C&O boxcar won’t be used to haul cement locally for your California railroad.
Define your own switchlist styles. If the built-in realistic switchlists don’t match your railroad, then just define your own. You can even generate custom switchlists that look like car cards and are swipeable on your iPhone or iPad!
View switchlists on your iPad or iPhone. Save paper and work switchlists displayed on your phone, or check your layout state from your iPad.
