About RailScanPro + RailCommand™

Built by model railroaders, for model railroaders. We're building the modern platform for layout control, operations, and everything in between — powered by RailCommand™, our graph-first layout control engine.

Our Story

RailScanPro was born from a real need: model railroaders deserved a modern, cloud-native platform for layout control and automation — not decades-old desktop software with flat data models.

Founded in 2025 by Winsit LLC, we made a fundamental architectural decision: instead of copying the list-based approach of legacy tools like TrainController, JMRI, or iTrain, we built RailCommand™ — a graph-first layout control engine that models your railroad as a directed graph. This unlocks capabilities legacy platforms architecturally cannot provide: automatic route computation, deadlock prediction, multi-user territory dispatch, drive-by-wire throttle, and AI-assisted operations.

Our team includes avid model railroaders who understand switchboard design, block detection, signaling logic, operations paperwork, and the satisfaction of watching a perfectly dispatched railroad run. We use RailCommand to run our own layouts.

Our Mission

RailCommand™ Layout Control

Graph-first switchboard designer, turnout control, block detection, prototypical signaling, automatic routing, drive-by-wire throttle, and deadlock prevention. The modern alternative to TrainController, JMRI, and iTrain.

RailCommand™ Dispatching

CTC dispatching, multi-user territory dispatch, car forwarding, operations simulation, daily challenges, and a global community of railroaders — from hobbyists to museum-scale clubs.

Protect Your Investment

Professional documentation, valuation tracking, and insurance-ready reports protect what matters most to you.

The Team

Winsit LLC

Chicago, Illinois

A small, passionate team of developers and model railroad enthusiasts dedicated to building the complete platform for the hobby. We built RailCommand™ from the ground up with a graph-first architecture that goes beyond what legacy layout control software could ever do. We're operators ourselves, and we use RailCommand to run our own layouts.
