GMAX is an excellent modelling tool, but unfortunately it lacks any sort of renderer (At least it did when I used it).

Yes it still does, infact Discreet ceased support for it, they host the DL and give out new reg codes and that's it. But if you want to learn modeling I recommend it since moving up to 3ds Max is easy, and 3ds max is widely used.

Downloaded Blender, seems good. Reading a tutorial at the moment learning its features, and 3D modeling.

Work the lighting a bit. Make it more brighter so it doesn't look like the tracks just end there but so it shines more and thus blurs the borders of the end of the tunnel.

Thanks for the feedback Dowly, I agree. I've added a lens flare and some glow, which now masks the end of the tunnel
