Sandringham Metro Line Advanced Train Control Capacity Analysis

Sandringham Metro Line Advanced Train Control Capacity Analysis Model of consistency. PTV selected LTK Australia to develop a comprehensive operations and electrical simulation model of the Melbourne network. Parent Company LTK Engineering Services’ proprietary TrainOps® software was used for this assignment. TrainOps has powerful train performance, rail infrastructure, electrification and train control systems modeling capability. As part of the assignment, we were tasked with quantifying the capacity benefits of advanced train control systems on the Sandringham Line, one of PTV’s 16 suburban lines. In the first portion of the analysis, LTK Australia applied TrainOps to quantify the capacity – under wayside signaling and under communications-based train control (CBTC) – of the line, ignor
