Rules of the Plan Analysis

We use RailSys™ to calculate theoretical Section Running Times, Headways and Junction Margins. These are then converted into Rules of the Plan values using standard industry conventions.

Delay data and observations are combined using in-house tools to (re) assess Dwell Times.

RailSys™ should be used to assess where Allowances can be placed to get maximum performance benefit. One of our Associates used RailSys™ to study the best positioning of Allowances as her PhD research, so we have access to what we believe is the most comprehensive study of this important area.
