We are developing a conversion program from a data base containg the dutch
railway infrastructure to RailML infrastructure_V094-17_2004-02-23.

2 questions came up during this development:

1) Given 2 parallel tracks with singleCrossOvers.
How can one specify the isolator(s) in the singleCrossOver?

2) A block has a required attribute called type. Possible block types are:
main, auto, LZB. I know dutch railways (NS) do not use LZB, but which one
of the remaining two should I use: main or auto? Can someone please
explain to me what main and auto block types mean?

Best regards,

-- Ron

The CrossOver is a short form of two switches. If you want to specify
informations about the track between the two switches (i.e. isolators), use
two switches and a short track between the switches.

Auto is an automatic block system, man (not main!) is a manual block.

Today, a new schema recommendation is published (V0.94-18, see below). It
will be presented on the next RailML meeting (Friday, 2004-04-02 in
Braunschweig). We plan to publish a stable version V1.0 in the next weeks.
Please use the Versions below V1.0 only for testing.

With best regards
