The calculator provides the determination of speed, time and distance for various rolling stock. The acceleration and braking rates are based on information supplied by the Accredited Rail Operator (ARO). The data source appears at the bottom of the screen when a calculation is performed.The calculations supported are acceleration, emergency braking, service braking or constant speed. The train types supported are Vlocity, Sprinter, N Class Passenger train, EMU train, Medium length freight train (GW16) and Long length freight train (GW40). The EMU acceleration is based on the best accelerating train (Xtrapolis) and EMU braking is based on the poorest braking train (Comeng/Hitachi).The calculator supports the affect of gradient. The gradient value entered will be applied along the distance of the calculation. The maximum/minimum gradient value supported is 3.3% for passenger trains or 1:40 for freight trains. For all passenger trains the gradient value is multipled by gravity and then added/subtracted to the train's base acceleration rate to form the effective rate. For freight trains the gradient adjustment is supplied directly from the GW16/GW40 tables.The acceleration and braking data used for the calculations is embedded in sheets of the workbook that are hidden and protected. To view these sheets select the 'Show All Sheets' button on the calculator.

The calculator is available to be used for operational modelling and signalling design but the following limitation and application considerations apply: The data in the calculator is based on or derived from information supplied by the ARO. The data is considered to be the best available information. The user should treat the results from the calculator as a guide. The actual data to be applied in a design is to be confirmed/advised by the ARO. The braking data is based on stopping (i.e. a final velocity of 0 km/h) distance. This data has amortised the affect of the train brake pipe delay time. When the calculator is used for a braking calculation with a non zero final speed, the results will be understated (due to the affect of train brake delay). A margin should be added to any non zero final speed braking calculation. When the calculator is used for a V/Line passenger train braking calculation (Vlocity, Sprinter, N Class) with an initial speed of 40 km/h or less, the results will be understated due to the affect of train brake delay. A margin should be added to the braking results. For EMU and freight trains, the affect of train brake delay is already included in the stopping distance, so no additional margin needs to be considered. When the calculator is used for calculating a signalling overlap distance a safety margin needs to be added. The value of this margin is defined in VRIOGS 012.0.1. The value is entered as a % in the 'Safety Margin' field. The acceleration data is based on best performance and for the EMUs the best accelerating train (Xtrapolis). When using the calculator for operational modelling of EMU trains, the acceleration rate overstates the capability of Hitachi and Comeng trains and when these trains need to be considered then de-rating the results would be appropriate.
