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.

Examples

Example for a train graph of "Kaiserstuhlbahn" created with jTrainGraph. When you click on the image, the whole operation day including train transitions will be opened:

Example for a train graph with multiple columns with an overview on "Trossinger Eisenbahn". When you click on the image, the pdf-file printed with jTrainGraph will be opened:

This screenshot shows the train graph and one of the panels for configuration of the train graph:
Since version 3.1 train graphs with multiple tracks are possible. When you click on the image, the whole timetable with shunting and train transitions is opened:

Since version 3.3, train graphs with time on x-axis can be displayed (click on the image to open the whole train graph)

Trains can be edited in views of all trains, e.g. in timetable frame or in frame "trains and days of operation".

It's also possible to open a specific train view by clicking into the train graph:

The live view of train graphs is in the same user interface:

Delays can be entered manually, using automatical calculations based on specific points within the timetable, or by waiting on other (delayed) trains at specific points:

Since version 3.2 vehicles and their tours can be defined and shown:
