Dear railML partners,
if you look at the website
http://www.railml.org/genesis/interlocking/index.html, you can find a
first working draft of an interlocking schema. There will still be a lot
to complete, so parallel to the discussion on the basic structure of the
schema I will prepare more sub-elements and attributes.
Best regards,
Gregor Theeg

Hi,
although I'm not Gregor Theeg and I'm not completely familiar with his
scheme, I'll try answer your questions...

Yes.

Yes.

Most probably, it means "distant signal" which is "Vorsignal" in German.

<Guessing>
Uuuuh.... I can only guess... maybe this element shall define the
control area of a local interlocking (either mechanic, relais or
electronic (ESTW-A in German)). To this means, it could contain a list
of all tracks, switches, signals and derailers which are controlled from
that interlocking.
</Guessing>

Dear Natasha Sonnenberg and Volker Knollmann,
the answers to your questions:
overlap --> Durchrutschweg
derailer --> Gleissperre
distSignal --> Vorsignal. There can be several possible distant signals
for one route, if there are junctions before the start signal, but in most
cases there would be only one distant signal. Maybe we can also leave this
information out because it is a direct result of track topology.
localOpAreas (locally operated areas) means areas (normally larger
shunting areas) which are not controlled from a signal box, but locally
operated (either manual or electric, the latter has the German name EOW -
Elektrisch ortsbediente Weichen). Nevertheless, there can be element
dependences between the switches, if they are used to a large extend, you
have something like a small, decentralized signal box for shunting areas.
Best regards,
Gregor Theeg

Yes.
