Many model trains and accessories have a barcode on their packaging. In Yard Tower you can record that barcode for each item. This makes searching and entering items much faster than typing everything in by hand.
Find items in your collection quickly
Have you saved a barcode for a locomotive, wagon, or accessory? Then you can find that item in just a few seconds by scanning the barcode with your smartphone or tablet. That way you get the most out of your model railway database.
Add new items via the barcode
New stock can also be added using the camera on your smartphone or tablet. Yard Tower reads the barcode and helps you fill in the rest of the item details.
In a shop or at a show
At a show or in a model railway shop, you do not always remember whether you actually own the model you are holding. By scanning the product barcode, you can see straight away whether you already have that item in Yard Tower. This prevents unnecessary duplicate purchases and gives you a clearer picture of what you are still missing.
The same works at home: a quick scan and you know where you recorded the model, with which notes and photos. No complicated searches when you just want to check something quickly.
