Central Station Live
Wireless CS2 and CS3 control
Only for Mac
Free
Mac
Native on the Mac: sidebar navigation, multiple windows, keyboard control, and the CS3's own track diagram reproduced exactly.
The definitive wireless controller for your Märklin Central Station 2 or 3, native on the Mac.
Take full command of your model railway from your desk. A proper sidebar, multiple windows, full keyboard control — and the same pixel-accurate track diagram the Central Station itself draws.
ON THE MAC
• Sidebar navigation across locomotives, accessories, routes, layout and automation
• Multiple windows, so the track diagram and a locomotive can sit side by side
• Keyboard shortcuts throughout — arrow keys for speed, D for direction, L for lights, 1–9 for functions
• Drag a .cslayout file onto the app to open it
LAYOUT AND ACCESSORIES
• Your CS3's track diagram reproduced exactly — the same connection geometry, curve maths and switch artwork the Central Station draws itself
• Turntables with all 48 numbered stalls
• Tap any switch or signal to throw it, and watch it change from any hand controller
• Hand-thrown turnouts drawn in the Central Station's own grey, distinct from decoder-driven ones
SHARE YOUR TRACK PLAN
• Export any layout as a file and send it by AirDrop, Mail or Messages
• Open one someone sends you and it lands straight in your list — never overwriting a layout you already have
• Browse track plans shared by other modellers, and publish your own
• No account, no password, no email address
LIVE WEBCAM
• Plug a USB webcam straight into your CS3 and it is found automatically
• Any IP camera works too — MJPEG streams and JPEG snapshots
ROUTES AND AUTOMATION
• Named sequences of switch, signal, speed and delay commands
• Trigger routes from feedback contacts, and watch CS3 automation state live
BUILT FOR THE HOBBY
• Automatic CS2 / CS3 discovery on your network
• Full roster import, including custom accessories and MFX UIDs
• CS3 backup management — list, download and create
• Works entirely on your local network
Requires a Märklin Central Station 2, or a CS3 running firmware 2.6 or later, on the same network.
