  1. RAILWAY INDUSTRYTRAIN PLANNINGLEVEL 2 TRAINING Module 4 - Train Planning(Core Skills)

  2. Train Planning Elements • ROTR • ROTP • Point to Point timings (SRTs) • Headways & Margins • Graphs and Timetables

  3. Rules of the Route Contains • Location, number, times and duration of major engineering work planned on the track for the timetable in question • Any pre-planned temporary speed and/or other restrictions on the trains • Any alternative routes or stopping patterns which will be necessary More on this Tomorrow

  4. Rules of the Plan • Comprise matters necessary for trains to be planned and scheduled • Timing margins, junction allowances • Timing points – mandatory/conditional • Headways • Station dwell times (min and/or max) • Vehicle restrictions e.g. speed, routing, weight, length • Advice on obtaining freight train loads and lengths • Route opening hours • Does not contain SRTs

  5. Point to Point Timings (Timing Load) • Basis of Calculation • Distance between timing points • Speed • Gradients and other geography • Power of train, locomotive, unit • Load of train • Train classification • Additional time for permanent speed restrictions

  6. Timing Links come in 4 versions • Stop to Start • Stop to Pass • Pass to Stop • Pass to Pass Now for an exercise

  7. Oxted Line SRTs P/P P/S S/P S/S Oxted to H Green 0.5 1.5 1.5 2.0 H Green to Lingfield 4.0 5.0 5.0 6.0 Lingfield to Dormans 1.0 2.0 2.0 3.0 Dormans to E Grinstead (2.0)3.0 (3.0) 4.0

  8. Timing Allowances ONLY AS SET OUT IN RULES OF THE ROUTE [3] - Engineering <2> - Performance (1) - Pathing {2} - Adjustment ONLY AS AGREED WITH OPERATORS ONLY TO KEEP FOLLOWING TRAINS AT PLANNING HEADWAYS APART ONLY AS SET OUT IN RULES OF THE PLAN

  9. Headways & Margins • Headway - the minimum time between successive trains travelling “on green signals” on the same line. • Determined by the time taken to travel between two signals (or signal boxes). • Margin - the minimum time between trains at a location where the routing of one train takes it across the path of another.

  10. Confliction Is a situation in which the path of one train runs through the path of another train travelling in the same direction, opposite direction (e.g. single line) and/or at a crossover/junction
