The simulator described in this report has been developed to test track layouts, vehicle characteristics, control system characteristics, and train schedules. The simulator consists of a program for a large-scale digital computer (the Control Data Corporation (CDC) 1640A). Generally speaking, the program itself does not include descriptions of the railway, the control system, the vehicle, the train, the train schedule, etc., and it is therefore equally well suited to any rapid transit system. The details of these items are included as input data that can be changed at will. This capability is important because it is the means by which different designs and plans can be tested quickly and efficiently. Problem preparation consists of introducing the basic program, the description of the railway, certain options and constraints, schedules, etc., and an indication of the desired output information. Development of the simulator has been a formidable task. The simulator is a very flexible tool because it is organized so that its operation can be readily refined or increased in scope to solve problems beyond those mentioned in the foregoing paragraphs.
