1 The Professional Solution for Transit & Rail Simulation

2 Fast, Reliable, and Cost Effective Managing the exceptional performance of your rail operations requires accurate information to make decisions that impact reliability and validate proposed infrastructure improvements.

3 Taros helps you analyze, manage, and measure your critical traction power, train control, and network operations elements. It helps you to identify capacity constraints, improve performance, and plan and validate improvement projects to make informed decisions and keep customers happy. Whether you are making decisions about state of good repair projects, or preparing for new improvements, the data you obtain from Taros can help you plan for reliable operations and support anticipated travel demand.

4 For transit agencies, changes in rail or traction power system configurations can have a major effect on customer service, signals and electrical performance, as well as capital and operations budgets. Taros, Gannett Fleming s suite of simulator software tools, helps railroad and rail transit operators better manage planned and unplanned events. Operators use simulation to evaluate the impact of varying scenarios, such as changes in schedules and train network configurations, as well as to model engineering designs of new systems and improvements to existing systems. Supported by decades of experience working with transit and rail operators in the planning, design, operation, and management of transit and rail systems, Gannett Fleming is proud to present the Taros technology to offer clients assistance in every area of the industry. Key Benefits Achieve Results Faster Manage Data Efficiently Navigate with an Intuitive Interface Create Prototypes Quickly Improve Productivity Evaluate Scenarios More Easily Perform Faster Quality Assurance Reviews

5 Whether your property is a metro, a light rail system, a conventional railroad, or a new high-speed rail line, Taros can help you analyze, manage, and measure traction power, train control, and network operations elements.

6 Highly Intuitive & Easy to Use Taros employs an intuitive user interface of panels and tabs. Users have access to model information, network management, solution control, and report generation. In addition, a comprehensive spreadsheet template is included, allowing an entire model to be represented in a spreadsheet and loaded into the program in a single step. Behind the scenes lies an extensive library of utilities that provide easy access to features such as unit conversion and formatting options, data management, default handling, and error processing. These modules make the program easy to use, while providing comprehensive and accurate results. Custom user options. Spreadsheet-based data management with dynamic user prompts. Intuitive graphical interface for network model management.
