jTrainGraph

Vision

In order to plan, display and supervise rail traffic it is essential to use time-distance-graphs. jTrainGraph is an application, that enables the user to create those train graphs in an convenient way and to display the graphs both in a planning mode, as well as in a live mode according to the specific delays of trains.
jTrainGraph was made to have a convenient, platform independent application, that can be extended.

Author

My name is Moritz Scherzinger, I'm in my mid-twentys and my main profession is an interface position in railway-focused IT-industry.
In my free time, I'm involved in the operation of historical railways in southern part of Germany.

A few years ago, I was searching for a free, platform independent application to create train graphs. As I couldn't find one which matched my needs, I started to develop an application by myself.
