System Requirements

Minimum

Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 (32 Bit or 64 Bit Version)
Intel Pentium 2.0 GHz or better
1GB RAM or more
200 MB hard disk space or more
Graphics card with screen resolution of 1024x768 or better
Soundcard

Monitors

The simulation can run on a monitor with 1024×768 resolution, though we strongly encourage higher resolutions for a better simulation experience.For optimal results, you might consider having a widescreen monitor. Multiple widescreen monitors are ideal.

Microsoft .Net Framework

This computer program uses the Microsoft .NET Framework.If this is not available, it will be installed upon installation of the application.

PSB Remagen (KRE)

Power Signal Box Remagen has many interesting dispatching aspects. On the heavily travelled route on the left side of the Rhine, it is your job to make the right decisions about trains overtaking one another such that the international and commuter trains arrive on time. Remagen includes the following stations / stops: Rolandseck, Oberwinter, Remagen, Remagen (Rhein), Breisig Bad, Bad Bodendorf, and Heimersheim.

The connection with Ahrtalbahn offers a variety of shunting and dispatching challenges in addition to the heavy traffic on the left Rhine. Additionally, it's possible to connect with another person (via the Internet ) dispatching in Bonn-Bad Godesberg - you must coordinate with your partner to ensure traffic arrives safely and on time!

Additional connections (Brohl) will become available in the future.

Number Entry Panel for route setting

Remagen is a part of Project Rheingold, which is the linking of many stations between Cologne and Koblenz on the busy left Rhine. These stations will be linkable using Line Operations (Internet/LAN play). The timetable of Project Rheingold recreates traffic from 1996.

Here is a short list of features available with a Sp Dr S 60 interlocking system (the most common system used in Germany)

Panel exactly modelled after the real signal panel according to design rules and regulations
Train and shunt route setting as in real life
Signal automation/fleeting using steering numbers
Signal defects and anomalies
Group buttons on the main panel
Automatic block direction locking lights
Automatic blocks (including Block 60 type of automatic block systems)
Train Descriptor System ZNP801 for offering/accepting/refusing traffic
Signal brightness (day/night brightness control of outside signals)
Panel brightness (brightness control of items on the panel)
Axle counters
Subsidiary signal Zs 1
Opposite track / wrong line signal Zs 6

Here are some of the items that the simulation offers:

Mouse-movable, zoomable dispatching panel
Working with multiple screens, if desired
Tile observer (view individual tiles in a separate window, with the ability to make scale tiles larger or smaller)
Train defects, delays, extra/unscheduled trains
Advanced movement order system for managing at the vehicle level.
Scenario system for loading specific simulation states (to challenge yourself, or to learn about specific interlocking features)
Communication on a realistic radio/telephone system
Communication with Internet/LAN partners when doing Line Operations
View Line Operations (multiple stations) using Dispatching Supervisor
Signal technicians to repair interlocking system malfunctions
Surprises and unforeseen events which any dispatcher can expect to happen!

An Adobe Acrobat (PDF) manual is included, which describes basic operations.

The Dispatcher Supervisor is a free tool used to help people connect with one another so they can do Line Operations. You may also use it to view what other dispatchers are doing in their simulations.

The MultiPlayer client (also free) is used when several people want to dispatch the same simulation.
