  • Abstract
    The Spanish railway network managed by the Adif company has two different track gauges, two electrification systems, and four families of signaling systems. The simulation package presented here takes these variations into account, making it easier to decide about routes, rolling-stock selection, and future infrastructure or vehicle investments.
