Greetings all,
A While back (I think it was here) someone posted a link to some software that did just about every type of calculation that you would need in design/building a layout all I can remember was stanstrains.com or something along those lines it was like 10-12 bucks to downoad. If anyone remembers or knows the site I'm looking for would you be so kind as to post it again I would be most grateful
Happy Railroading,
Sean

Length Calculator
I've been using the "Calculate Length" utility in Easy Model Railroad and it has been REALLY handy.
I like to calculate length, usually from proto to HO to see how accurate my model lengths are. All the other scales can be calculated and you can go either from proto to scale or vice-versa.
Very nice.
