Trains

All trains, colored by train type.

Statistical summary by train type. The system will add up all flows shown, broken down by the attribute we are coloring by.

Here we are just selecting the M trains.

Just the M trains, but we are coloring by locomotive type.

This is the Pilotflow module. It will show you activites aggregated over any time period you choose. You may “Color by” any characteristic (here, we are coloring by train type). You may apply a filter (for example, just show the trains with over 20000 tons that were at least 6 hours late).

This is the Pilotanimate module. You are seeing the same activities as you were seeing in the previous Pilotflow module, but now the activities are animated over time.

This is the Pilotgraph module. It shows the same information you were seeing on the map, but we add up everything you are seeing, and plot it as a graph over time.

Here we are using Pilotflow to show activities at a single point in time...

We can select on a single location, and then hit the Pilottour button to actually drill into the model to see what is going on...
