Model railroads are great fun for the whole family. Imagine a miniature world of houses, neighborhoods and people that submit to your every whim in HO scale! The OCD System allows for TOTAL control by allowing multiple trains to run at the same time with up to 42 individual, yet monitored, subsystems. Tracks may be isolated or forced to work together. Painstaking realism has been achieved through obsessive attention to detail and masterful hand painting of scenery.

The OCD Systems SimRailRoad Town is a Fun object in The Sims that can only be used by adults. It is larger and more detailed than the Urchineer Train Set, and is on an elevated table so adults don't need to get on the floor to play with it.

The Sims 2: FreeTimeEdit

Size:	4x3

Containing all the accoutrements missing from other so-called "complete" model train sets, the Round and Round provides hours of enjoyment. Experience the sublime feeling of watching a small train go in loops or the fulfillment of creating a small mountain town.

Model train sets return in The Sims 2: FreeTime with the Round and Round Model Train Set. Unlike the model train sets in The Sims, players can not only have Sims play with the train, but can have them add landscaping to the train table. However, they cannot choose where landscaping items will go, and the town, trees, and signs are not added all at once.

In addition to being a fun object, the Round and Round Model Train Set also builds enthusiasm for the Tinkering hobby. A model train set can be found in Will's Garage.

When used on a residential lot, there is a 2% chance that it will catch fire each time it is operated. A mod available at SimWardrobe can prevent this.
