Railworks Modely May 2026

A legendary diesel locomotive from the Czech Republic. The soundpack for this model is award-winning—you can hear the distinctive "Kokos" engine revving.

For US fans, this art-deco electric beast requires careful throttle management. The 3D pilot model and pantograph sparks are unmatched.

Perched on a stool in the center of his dusty attic, Elias let out a sigh. Around him lay the ghosts of a hundred unfinished projects—a plastic mountain range with no tunnels, a station platform missing its roof, and a locomotive that hadn’t moved in ten years.

Elias had the heart of a railfan, but the hands of an impatient man. He loved the idea of the railway—the rhythm, the logistics, the engineering—but he hated the glue, the wiring, and the endless search for the "right" part that never seemed to exist.

"It’s supposed to be relaxing," he muttered, dropping a tiny, unstrung copper wire onto the floorboards.

That was when he found the box. Tucked behind a stack of old magazines was a sleek, matte-black package with a single silver inscription: RailWorks Modely. railworks modely

There was no branding, no flashy marketing. Just a note on top: For those who dream in 1:87 scale, but build with infinite precision.

Elias opened it. Inside, he didn't find a kit of pre-molded plastic. He found a system. The RailWorks Modely wasn’t just a train set; it was a digital-to-physical bridge. It offered modular track beds that snapped together with magnetic precision, eliminating the warping and misalignment that had plagued his layouts for years.

But the real magic was the "Core."

Elias placed the small, silver device onto the tracks. Immediately, the room changed. The RailWorks Modely system didn't just power the train; it orchestrated the environment. Through an intuitive interface on his tablet, Elias could design his route digitally, dragging and dropping signals and switches. The Modely system translated his digital commands into physical actions. The turnouts switched with a satisfying clack, and the signals turned from red to green in perfect synchronization.

He placed his favorite locomotive—an old BR Class 47—on the tracks. In the past, this engine had been a jerky, noisy beast, stalling on every incline. A legendary diesel locomotive from the Czech Republic

Elias pushed the throttle slider on his screen.

There was no lurch. No screech. The Class 47 began to move with the fluid grace of a real diesel engine. The RailWorks Modely drive system simulated the weight of the train, the inertia of the locomotive, and the resistance of the cars behind it.

As the train rounded the bend of his newly aligned tracks, Elias noticed something else. The Modely system had engaged its "Atmospheric Mode." As the engine neared the station, the platform lights automatically warmed to a golden yellow, and a tiny speaker in the baseboard emitted the distinct, rhythmic thrum of a diesel engine idling.

For the first time in thirty years, Elias wasn’t frustrated by his hobby. He wasn’t fighting against loose rails or bad soldering. He was the Engineer. He was the Station Master. He was in control.

He watched the red tail lights disappear into the tunnel he had finally finished, knowing that when the train emerged on the other side, it would be perfectly on time. Are you a modeller looking to contribute

RailWorks Modely hadn’t just given him a train set. It had given him back his imagination.

In the context of this simulator, "modely" refers to user-created add-ons that introduce new locomotives, passenger cars, freight wagons, routes, and scenery objects into the game. Unlike official DLC (Downloadable Content), many models are created by independent developers and passionate fans.

The term "RailWorks modely" is particularly popular in Central European communities (Slovakia, Czech Republic, Poland, and Hungary) where players frequently search for specific regional stock—from the iconic Czechoslovak State Railways (ČSD) locomotives to modern ZSSK electric units.

Creating a locomotive in RailWorks is a multi-stage obsession. A high-quality model (like a Class 37 or an SD40-2) requires:

Scenery is easy. Locomotives are the holy grail of Railworks modely. A functional locomotive requires:
