Import / Export of Numbers of Trains

The list with number of trains (on menu Tables|Library (local)) can be updated from ASCII files (*.txt) with via menu File|Import, format „Number of Trains“.

Via the „Options“ button on dialog Import Files it can to be specified whether the data imported shall be copied to existing railway objects (option „Railway“) or to the library „Number of Trains“ (option „Number of Trains“. Further. it can be specified whether the existing objects shall be updated and/or whether non-existing objects shall be appended.

Please note that the data can be assigned to the railway tracks only if the name (attribute BEZ) of the list with number of trains is identical with the ID of the respective railway object.

Table Format

The parameters have to be separated by tabulators (TAB). The name of the track or of the train list are in the first row (NOT=“Number of Trains“):

1st line: name of the list with number trains (e.g. designation of track)

2nd line:

train class number Day number Evening number Night speed train length *) perentage disc brakes type correction Dfz *) selection train type *) number of axles *)

3rd line: blank (as a separating line between tracks)

Note the following points:

  • The parameters in the 2nd line have to be separated from each other by the tabulator key (TAB).
  • Number of trains for additional train classes are inserted after the 2nd line as additional lines.
  • Parameters marked with *) are just relevant for German procedures Schall03 (1990) or Schall03 (2014). For CNOSSOS-EU, those are ignored (can be set to zero).
