About the Rail Systems Center

The Rail Systems Center provides engineering consulting services to the rail transportation and electric power industries. Our main offering is the Train Operations Model (TOM), a software product that enables simulation of rail-based transportation systems.

Version 3.3 of the Train Operations Model is available as of September 1, 2009. A description of the new features of Version 3.3 is contained in the file Improvements in TOM Version 3.3.pdf, a downloadable PDF file.

There is a charge for this upgrade. Contact uricharda@comcast.net for more information. Please include your current version number.

For companies who do not wish to purchase the TOM outright, it is now possible to lease it on a year by year arrangement. Contact uricharda@comcast.net for more information.

An executive video presentation on the TOM is now available. View it now.
