Control Line Generator

RAILSIM's Control Line Generator supports engineering design and optimization of train control systems by generating bidirectional signal control lines for a given territory in a RAILSIM Editor database based on your specifications of:

• Permitted signal aspect and/or code rate sequences,
• Prohibited signal aspect and/or code rate sequences, and
• Safe braking distance criteria.

Integrated with RAILSIM Editor's Track Profile Editor, the Control Line Generator lets you quickly modify design speeds, signal locations, control lines, and other system attributes. These changes can then be saved in the RAILSIM database.

RAILSIM’s integrated system lets you test your new or modified designs in Network Simulator and/or RAILSIM TPC through Safe Braking Distance, Signal Delay, Signal Clear, and Headway reports. At any point in this iterative process of fine tuning a signal system, you can generate customized control line drawings or signal plans (in CAD DXF file format) of the new design from the Track Profile Editor.
