TrenoLive

TrenoLive is your web-based timetable planning and management programme. It allows

  • the creation and the production control of your daily timetable,
  • the creation of short term variants,
  • the management of construction situations and capacity restrictions,
  • the planning of yearly timetables for publication,
  • the import and export of train paths and
  • the creation of timetable studies for long-term planning.

TrenoLive supports different user rights, so whether you are admin, planner or you have a read-only role, different parts of TrenoLive might be relevant for you. Further information on the user rights can be made available upon request by your TRENOlab Contact.

First steps and use cases​

TrenoLive is structured into 6 different modules (Use cases):

  • Timetable
  • Analysis
  • Projects
  • Scenarios
  • Infrastructure
  • Real Time

Select the relevant module in the top row. Each module has a different set of functionalities.

The login window brings you to a selection of projects and scenarios. Select a scenario and open it by clicking ok.

The modules Analysis and Real Time are relevant for the production control of your timetable in operation. The module Timetabling is the main timetable planning function while Project, Scenarios and Infrastructures are needed to organise your different stages of planning and their respective environments.

This manual is mostly dedicated at the functions within the Timetabling module, but for a correct understanding we need to take a look at the organisational modules Project, Scenarios and Infrastructures first.

Project​

A project is a structure setting for the timetable databases. It contains fundamental parameters such as margin settings, OCP groups, etc. which are defined once for every railway network and usually do not change.

The project can not be modified without TRENOlab support. Please contact TRENOlab in case of necessary modifications to your project data.

Scenarios​

An authorised user can set up new scenarios for each Project in the Scenario module. A scenario references an infrastructure release from the Infrastructures module and has a limited validity period. The validity period can range from a single day to multiple years. It will not be possible to plan trains for days outside the validity period once a new scenario has been set up.

Infrastructures​

Infrastructures contain one or more macroscopic infrastructure models. The macroscopic model contains Operational Control Points (OCPs) such as stations, junctions, halts and tracks connecting these OCPs. It also contains station layouts with tracks, track sectors and platforms, as well as kilometration. More information on how to edit the infrastructure in this dedicated page
