Abstract

The paper considers the creation of a digital model for railway infrastructure buildings, track, contact network, flora, terrain, etc., as well as the creation of traction and non-traction rolling stock for the simulator with virtual modes of operation. The process of creating 3D models, stations, runs, railway electrification, setting up safety and centralization devices is described. There is no full attachment to the driver's seat, it is possible, for example, to understand how a traction substation works, how to load/unload cargo in the wagons correctly. In the simulator, it is possible to simulate the movement of trains according to real traffic schedules and change something in this schedule directly in the simulator, which will save millions of dollars in experiments in real life. It is also important that the project offers the possibility of using the multiplayer, i.e., the possibility of organizing remote training for many students and employees within the simulated area.
