This paper presents a combined approach to rail traffic simulation using suitable models, both microscopic and macroscopic. In rail traffic, train motions do not depend directly on preceding train motions, as in road traffic, but only on the speed limit in the current block section. Using the history of the speed limit in each block section, simulation of the movement of individual trains between stations can be performed independently. Based on this fact, we have formed a new microscopic model and proposed a combined approach, applying the macroscopic model to normal train runs and the microscopic model to others. Our combined approach makes it possible to obtain quick responses by macroscopic simulation and detailed results by microscopic simulation.
