The suburban timetabling tool helps in constructing timetables for a rail-network that offers services with high frequency and where rolling stock planning and terminal resources have to be considered in detail together with deciding the timings of services. An introduction to this tool is available in the presentation made to the Central Railways: pdf-file.
Currently this tool has been used to generate a draft timetable for the Mumbai Harbour Line timetable of Central Railways.
A version of the code that uses AMPL/Gurobi solver is available here.
A more recent version of the code that together with more elaborate code-documentation is available here.
