About

Made for the hobby, not off it.

Locodex is a small ecosystem of tools for model railroaders, built by someone in the hobby rather than pitched at it from the outside. Two apps, one account: a precision track planner and a reference encyclopedia.

The guiding idea is old-fashioned on purpose. You pay once for what exists, and optional upgrades cover what's genuinely new — the way software worked before everything became a subscription trap. The planner is free and fully offline; paying only ever adds cloud sync or permanent ownership of the advanced modules.

Whatever you make is yours: local files in open formats, nothing important locked behind a login, everything working on the bench, on the train, or off the grid entirely.

By a railroader
Built inside the hobby, not pitched at it. Designed by someone who actually lays track.
Fair pricing
Pay once for what exists, optional upgrades for what's genuinely new. No subscription traps, no punishing the infrequent user.
Offline-first
Install it and it works on the bench, on the train, off the grid. The cloud is a convenience, never a requirement.
Your data is yours
Local files you own outright, in open formats. Nothing important is ever locked behind a login.
