Title: XTrkCad (who to contact)
Post by: ddellacca on March 22, 2008, 01:57:50 AM
Hi,

This may actually be an N-scale question, but I thought it might be
easier to get help here.

Does any know how to contact the XTrkCad people?
I've searched and searched and haven't found how anywhere.

The problem I have is that the #7 turnouts in file atlasn55.xtp have
incorrect 'y' location and radius.
Does anyone know the correct values?

Thanks,
Dick

I just typed xtrkcad in Google, don't know if this site has the information you need.

Bob,

Thanks for the reply, but it doesn't help.
I've looked the WEB over and find lots of pages for XTrkCad, but none
have even an email contact or slow mail contact for anyone associated
with XTrkCad.

I thought possibly someone in the forum had the info or had
possibly used XTrkCad and come across the same problem I have,
and maybe found a solution.

Thanks again,
Dick

You might try posing the question to sillub@sillub.com.  That's from their old website before they went to the xtrkcad.org page.

it's 2023 and I can't contact them. All messages come back as not sent. The website is a joke. I downloaded it but have no idea how it works.

In today's model railroad digital world, 2008 is pre Jurassic, getting closer to the Big Bang.  I'm not sure what the system you're talking about is, but whatever it is, I think they're trying to revive it is trying to work on a dead horse.  I'd cut my losses and start over with something contemporary.
