Why MTT, not a generic app

Built for one hobby — yours

Other tools track anything and value nothing in particular. Model Train Tracker is purpose-built for model railroad collectors.

Built only for model trains

Not a generic “collect anything” app — real scales, real brands, and a 100,000+ model-train catalog already loaded.

Catalog by photo

Snap the box; MTT photo analysis reads the brand, road name, and catalog number and creates the item. No typing, no catalog numbers.

Train-specific live valuation

Secondary-market values for actual models, refreshed for you — not a static price you have to maintain by hand.

Insurance-ready in one click

Appraisal-style PDF and Excel reports with photos, catalog numbers, and total insured value — on every plan.

Pricing questions

Good to know

How much does Model Train Tracker cost?
Free covers 20 items with the full 100,000+ catalog, photo cataloging, and insurance-ready exports. Collector is $95/year (or $8.99/month) for 150 items, 150 MTT photo analysis scans a month, and current market values. Curator is $189/year (or $17.99/month) for unlimited items and scans plus live revaluation, value history, and price alerts. Annual plans include one month free.
What's the difference between Collector and Curator?
Collector unlocks 150 items and shows each item's current market value. Curator removes the limits — unlimited items and MTT photo analysis scans — and adds live revaluation, value history, and price alerts: the tools for tracking your collection as an asset over time.
What are MTT photo analysis scans, and what's the onboarding burst?
Each photo identification counts as one MTT photo analysis scan. Free includes 20 scans a month, Collector 150, and Curator unlimited. New Collector and Curator members also get a one-time 30-day onboarding burst, so you can catalog an existing collection without hitting the monthly limit.
Do I need a free trial?
No trial needed — start free and upgrade when you're ready. The Free plan isn't time-limited, and nothing you've added is ever lost when you upgrade.
What happens at the Free 20-item limit?
You keep full access to everything you've already added. To add item #21 and beyond, upgrade to Collector (150 items) or Curator (unlimited).
