Try BLOGIT: a routine designed for Multinomial logit modelling.  It's 
discussed in Hensher, D.A. and Johnson, L.W. (1981) "Applied Discrete 
Choice Modelling," published by Croom Helm in London and by John Wiley & 
Sons in New York.  It's also to be found in Crittle, F.J. and Johnson, L.W. (
1981) "BLOGIT: A Program for Estimation of Multinomial Logit Choice 
Models," *Journal of Marketing Research* 18,4, pp.483-484.

The original programme has been "lifted" several times to produce some 
commercially available programmes with nice user-friendly front ends (Sorry 
I don't know any names.)  The fortran source code and a version compiled for 
PC seems to be around many faculties interested in Transport Economics and/ 
or Marketing Science.  If you have trouble locating these, then e_mail me 
and I'll see if I can find my copies.
