Dear Community,
In the context of a new railML 3.2 infrastructure export, we need to add some information about the construction aspects of blocks. railML already has the route element. But this element does not seem to have suitable attributes for the following properties:
- Approach Signal Distance: The (nominal) distance of the approach signal from the route's destination signal.
- Line of Sight: The maximum distance from which the route's exit signal can be recognized. This may be different for each route ending at a particular main signal. So the sightDistance property of interlocking signals is not suitable.
- Linear Location: Exact limits of a route in the microscopic infrastructure. This may differ from the area enclosed by the entry and exit signals, if those are not located exactly on the block boundaries.
Is there any suitable alternative for modelling this data in railML 3.2? Or should we design an extension? It seems to me that this would best be solved by a routeIS element in the infrastructure sub-schema. This would be similar to the modelling of signals and switches.
Best regards
David
