In railway engineering, there is a growing demand for positioning of the tongue in turnouts. The proposal is to introduce a new point in the Feature Definition of turnouts, making it possible to specify the distance from point .1 to the Tongue. Su...

The idea is similar to parametric civil cell: we need a tool to place the ties along the turnout. The ties must be of different lengths, placed at different spacing, and must follow the alignments from and to specifically identified points. The ti...

When you create a new alignment, break a alignment and lose the turnouts or import a geometry it would be good to be able to re-associate or change the alignment to which a turnout are associated/connected to.For instance when I´m working with a c...

We need the ability to get the profile elevation from the turnout points to the turnout report.

I suggest improvements to Bentley OpenRail Designer for handling Cross over connections in the following scenarios: Cross over Between Adjacent Tangent Tracks: Enable a simple geometric connection between two parallel tracks without the use of Geo...

Currently OpenRail does not have the ability to assign profile symboligies for Turnouts with the Turnout Feature Definition.

To comply with US railroads standards, we need to place agency-specific cells at the turnouts. The cells must snap to either PS (point .1) or PITO (point .0). Right now these points are not snappable, neither graphically identifiable which makes m...

When calculating a crossover geometry (2 turnouts+geometry in between) it could be beneficial if both turnouts (beginning and end) could be set as free. This would be beneficial in cases when two tracks are not totall parallel and the only option ...

In US and Canadian standards, the turnouts are defined from switch point, and the distance between point of switch ( .1) and PITO (intersection, as point .0) is the most critical distance. As right now, there is no prompt available in turnouts fea...

Currently the turnout feature definition only supported non-US convention and methodology. It is only based on ratio which is not well suited for US and Canadian users. North American rail standards are based the actual frog and switch angles expr...
