Hornby Track-Master is a birds eye 2D Planning tool. It is unlike Hornby Virtual Railway. HVR[note 2] Uses a 3D Planning Environment in witch you plan, build and test you layout. How ever, HVR being released many years ago, low quality graphics. Also Hornby Track-Master allows for developement of a shopping list for every thing needed to build it, but it has no 3D where as HVR does (though HVR doesn't have a shopping list feature).
Users select pieces of track from lists and places them where the user wishes. Track-Master use birds eye view to work. Track, Platforms, turntables etc can be added, once completed the software develops a printable shopping list[note 3] which see people can go out and but the things they need with out buying to much and wasting it or buying to less and having to go back
