Hump Yard


This is a simulator to train hump yard operators, who put together cargo trains.
The visualization system has a very exact virtual model of a train sorting hump, which is rendered on a number of projectors or monitors. Thus a panoramic view is formed, the same as the operator has in reality. All the conditions, different time of day, season, fog and precipitation can be simulated.
A replica of a real control board allows to control virtual semaphores, switches and retarders.
Over the years, more than 15 simulators of this kind, each having exact model of a different respective sorting hump were installed in their respective sites. This includes Ekateringurg, Novosibirsk, St.Petersberg, Khabarovsk, Chelyabinsk and Yaroslavl.
