ABSTRACT
CENTRALIZED TRAFFIC CONTROL (CTC) is a system which controls the movement of trains. One train dispatcher, located at a central point, can manipulate the position of track switches and the indication of track signals through the use of a series of push buttons. It is the position of the track switches and the signal indications which govern the progress of the trains through the CTC system. A schematic of a section of single track with a siding and a section of double track is shown in Exhibit I. The CTC Simulation is a model of the train movements through a CTC system.

From timetabling to train regulation-a new train operation model
A new train operation model proposed here not only considers the flexibility of train regulation, or train rescheduling problem, but also the objectives of timetabling process. A genetic algorithm is applied to solve this problem efficiently. Thus no ...
