Route Cards

Route Cards can be added from the Index View of any interlocking.

Creating A Route Card

Route Cards can be created by selecting the Edit icon, followed by Add Route Card,

The following fields are required:

Field	Details
Index Number	The number of the index.
Original Date	Date the route card is created.
Version	Pre-populated from the Index version.
Drawing Number	Pre-populated from the Index drawing number.
Route Name	The name of the route.
Route From	The route origin.
Route To	The route destination.
Route Via	Alternative or Preferred route. Any additional tracks covered by the route.
Signal	The entry signal.
Exit	The exit signal.
Reminders	Any additional reminders.
Other Instructions	Any other instructions applicable.

Index Number is made up of three parts and is automatically generated.

• The first part of the index number is the prefix which is taken from the Entry Signal prefix when the record is saved.

• The centre section of the index number is taken from the Entry Signal number, and is auto-populated when the record is saved.

• The suffix of the index number is taken from the Route Name letter and this again is auto-populated when the user saves the record.

Signals (both Entry and Exit) are broken down into two parts - a string value and alphanumeric value. If a route card exists for this Index, the signal prefix is pre-populated from the previous route card.

Points Listings

The Points listings allows the points to be added to the route card.

Each point is broken up into three sections, with the only the first two being required. Points can be added as a Normal or Reverse point. To switch once it has been entered, select the switch icon.

To delete a point, select the delete icon.

To re-order, use the hamburger icon to drag the point to the correct place.

Once complete hit save.
