Create multiple long sections/profiles in the same model space

When creating profiles/long sections for track vertical geometry, ORD creates an individual sheet view and model view for each sheet. This creates a large amount of work when trying to bulk annotate or export long sections for drafting. It would b...

More types of bridges needed

The software is capable of quickly performing conceptual design, but currently supports very few bridge types, which cannot meet the needs for scheme presentation. Could you please add cable-stayed bridges, and suspension bridges? Also, provide se...

Additional Shoulder Rollover Slope Rows (3D Modeling - Templates)

I would like to make a suggestion on an improvement to template design for 3D Modeling in ORD. The Rollover values tool in superelevation template design is incredibly helpful, as it saves time by calculating the proper shoulder super rates accord...

Snap to specific chainage in Plan

In PRT it was possible to snap a smart line to a specific chainage in plan by using the key-in 'SO=xxx'. In OpenRail the closest tool I can find is Civil Accudraw with station-offset toggled on, but I have found that often CivilAccudraw does not w...

Dimension display for skewed slopes

Would like to be able to have slope dimensions show a suffix of (SK) when showing skewed slopes or be able to define it to display with dual dimensions. The dual dimensions would show the actual plotted skewed slope 5.74:1(SK) and the designed slo...

Create a tool that constructs transitions between different types of rail sections

Sometimes in track design, one must use different types of rails, say 60kg and 50kg rails. One could weld them and grind them together but this is a crude method. In Sweden they use what is called a transition rail, which in principle contain a sm...
