JFRail and the University of Birmingham (UoB) delivered the HS1 Dynamic Operational Model project on behalf of London St Pancras Highspeed (LSPH), marking a significant transition from static to dynamic railway modelling.
By simulating the HS1 and Eurotunnel networks in a single integrated model, the project tested operational scenarios and infrastructure changes, improving network capacity, performance, and cost-efficiency.
Together, we developed a highly accurate baseline model (e.g., track length discrepancy of -0.06%) which incorporated comprehensive stakeholder data on infrastructure, timetables, and rolling stock.
This model generated valuable operational insights, such as early running trains due to generous timetables and Eurotunnel shuttle delays caused by inaccurate rolling stock data.
