this is the control app for the Hall Class locomotive. Most of you will recognize this locomotive from a certain magical movie franchise. At Pocket Railway Museum we don't stop at the recreation of awesome trains in model form. We really want to give you a sense of interaction, agency and playfullness. We achieve this by giving you the oppurtunity to 3D print and assemble your own models with our carefully designed, ready to print files. You can find them on our website. It doesn't end there. We have gone a step further in making our designs come to life. With some specific electronic parts, our models can be made fully functional, with lights and sound, movement and steam! With our app for computers and phones, you find yourself on the footplate of your model, ready to take control of everything. Our digital controls behave just like they do in real life. The app simulates the characteristics of the locomotives real life counterparts, so be a good driver! But most of all, just enjoy!
