Description
The app is driving digital model trains supporting several digital centrals with their different protocols. The app is developed by a model train enthusiast for other model train enthusiasts.
The focus is on a mobile locomotive controller and is therefore currently limited to only control locomotives. For this purpose, up to 3 locomotives are supported at the same time. At the iPad in landscape format all 3 locomotives are displayed in one screen and can be controlled easily together. At the iPhone controllers can be switched easily, but only one controller is displayed.
Following protocols are supported:
- SRCP including MFX extension
- Z21 from Fleischmann / Roco
- WiThrottle as used e.g. in JMRI or DCC++EX
- DCC++EX
In order to control a locomotive, the app must be connected to a control center. A small red point flashes at the bottom right of the symbol. Now the locomotive can be set. Again a small red point flashes at the bottom right of the symbol.
Now you can start and operate the locomotive using the function buttons or the speed slider.

Ratings and Reviews
WORKS WITH DCC-EX when other apps don't
Train Driver is NOT even recommended as a throttle in DCC-EX website. After hours of configuring DCC-EX I finally had to download throttle for my iphone 7. After downloaded recommended throttle I found Train Driver. This was easy to configure and worked within minutes. Just remember use the defaulted port 2560. As far as configuring the DCC-EX, one must NOT assign a static ip to DCC-EX COMMAND station. Just comment out the static ip by putting // before the ip. You still must put in wifi user and password. I rate this program 5 . YOU SHOULD CHARGE FOR THIS APP. Great job.
