GRASP-GENERALIZED RAILROAD ACTIVITY SIMULATION PROGRAM

Railroad is described in terms of its physical and logical structure; physical attributes are tracks and trains; logical attributes include signal system, timetables and operating strategy; track layout is described by nodal representation; interlockings are nodes; straight tracks are links; simulator determines priority based on time of day and direction of travel of each train, local/express status of trains, and passenger transfers.
