TRAIN OPERATIONS SIMULATOR. USER'S MANUAL

This manual explains input, output and uses of the T.O.S. (Train operation simulator) in detail. Input, output and capabilities of the T.O.S. are explained by several examples. Finally, a brief explanation on installation of the T.O.S. on individual systems and an example of JCL (Job-Control Language) for the IBM 370/158 is given. An attempt has been made to keep this manual user oriented. Detailed information on the program can be found in the programmer's guide.
