Dear IL-community,
According to railml-schema (railML3.3), the data type of the attribute "trainNumberField@elementNumber" must be a "non-negative Integer". In Switzerland, we use train number fields labeled "2A" / "2B" when, for example, two trains are to be dispatched to the same track (see picture below). Therefore, the data type of the attribute would probably be "String." 

Question to the community: Is there a need to label trainNumberFields with values other than "non-negative integer"?

Best regards

Silvan
