Good news for enthusiasts of realistic model railways: the popular I-Track range for Viessmann Carmotion has recently been significantly expanded. With this, I-Track once again takes a step towards even more dynamics, detail, and ease of use on the layout. Whether you are an experienced model railroader or just starting with automated traffic, this expansion offers interesting possibilities for everyone.
is Carmotion again?
The Carmotion system is known for its innovative approach to moving road traffic on a model scale. While traditional systems are often complex and labor-intensive, Carmotion excels in:
- Easy installation
- Reliable technology
- Realistic driving movements
- Flexible expandability
Using smart technology, vehicles move independently across the layout, stopping at intersections and responding to traffic situations.
Carmotion by Viessmann: the technology behind the success
Viessmann Carmotion is an innovative system for automated road traffic on model railway layouts, developed by the well-known manufacturer Viessmann. The system uses invisible magnetic guidance in the road, allowing vehicles to move independently and extremely realistically across the layout. Thanks to intelligent electronics inside the vehicles, they can not only accelerate and brake smoothly, but also stop at stations, maintain distance from each other, and react to traffic situations. The major advantage of Carmotion is the combination of realism and ease of use: without complicated installations, you can create lively and dynamic traffic that perfectly complements modern model railway layouts.
- Automatic stopping and starting
- Maintaining distance between vehicles
- Responding to traffic situations
I-Track responds perfectly to this by making the system more accessible. This way, you benefit from Viessmann’s proven reliability and I-Track's practical enhancements.
Why choose Carmotion?
The strength of Carmotion lies in the combination of simplicity and realism.
Advantages:
- Plug & play character
- Realistic driving behavior
- Modular expandability
- Suitable for all skill levels
With the expansion of the I-Track Carmotion range, it becomes even easier to bring your model railway layout to life and integrate Carmotion into your modular setup. Thanks to the combination of Viessmann technology and I-Track, you have everything you need to create a realistic and dynamic traffic system.
In short: if you want more movement, realism, and experience, Carmotion is highly recommended.
