Headway Calculator

RAILSIM's Headway Calculator automates signal clearing time (minimum supportable headway) processing for fixed block wayside and/or cab signal/ATC train control designs. Accessible from both RAILSIM Editor and RAILSIM TPC, this add-on records the entrance and clearance times for all defined track circuits for End to End Runs. Combining this information with user-specified information on control lines and train performance characteristics, RAILSIM generates Headway Reports detailing the aspect and/or code rate restoration times behind the train for each wayside aspect/speed command at each location on the rail system.


Specifying Headway Reporting Parameters in Report Generator

When accessed from RAILSIM Editor, this module lets you generate an engineering drawing in CAD DXF format (complete with color bar representation of Headways) in addition to the traditional RAILSIM Headway Processing Report.
