TRENOlab

TRENOlab is an Italian company providing consultancy service and software development in the specialised field of railway operations. With trenissimo the company offers the most modern railway operations simulator currently available on the market.

TRENOlab’s core business is helping railways optimise the quality of their operations – from long-term infrastructure planning to short-term timetable adjustments – supporting railway operating companies, public authorities and infrastructure managers in planning efficient and robust timetables for purposes including schedule optimisation, infrastructure planning, timetable robustness studies and concession bids.

Trenissimo is a railway operations simulator designed to make railway simulation more intuitive, accurate, and efficient. Intuitive thanks to the easy-to-use user interface and the interactive graphs. Accurate for its detailed models and for its innovative ability to replicate dispatcher train priority decisions as in real operations. Efficient thanks to its integration with TRENOlab’s planning and analysis tool – which significantly reduces the time spent to setup, run and analyse simulations.

With a strong background in academic research TRENOlab is part of multiple research projects including the project Determining the capacity of railroad lines – Analogies between the quality criteria of analytical and simulative methods, funded by the DZSF.

Determining the capacity of railroad lines

In order to investigate the performance behaviour of railway systems, there are various approaches in railway operations science. The most important are analytical performance calculations and railway operation simulations. Analytical performance calculations can be carried out for parts of the infrastructure (lines, route nodes or track [...]
