What Locobox does
Six features that matter in a collector's day.
Your whole inventory in one place
Record locomotives, rolling stock and accessories with manufacturer, era, railway company and your own fields. Fast even for large collections thanks to CSV import.
Trains from your own stock
Assemble complete trains from your recorded articles. The consist is visible right away, including the length over buffers. The order can be adjusted by drag and drop.
Decoders in detail
Store address, protocol and linked articles right on the decoder. Function matrix and CV configuration are included for power users.
-
Your own photos
Every article gets a picture: as a small side view, it makes the article recognisable at a glance in lists and trains.
-
At the layout and at the desk
The same interface on phone, tablet and computer. Look things up on your phone, maintain them on the computer.
-
Stored centrally and safely
Your collection lives in the cloud, stored in the EU. Every device shows the same state automatically, no manual syncing needed. Developed in Switzerland.

A passion project at heart
Locobox is run by one person: Yannik. He collects model railways himself and, next to job and studies, builds the app he always wanted for his own collection.
