Pathfinder Orange Book Version 2.2.43 Catalogue paths3.1 SummaryCatalogue paths can be saved, retrieved and requested within Pathfinder. To do this, a pathcatalogue has been implemented in Pathfinder. This path catalogue contains the catalogue pathscreated by the IM’s for the RU’s (offers made by the IM’s to the RU’s).An element of Pathfinder Version 1.5 is to be able to search for catalogue paths using various searchparameters. No function is being developed to search for catalogue paths with a view to theautomatic or semi-automatic construction or linking of paths. However, any number of cataloguepaths can be searched for and linked to form a corridor.3.2 Definition of catalogue pathsCatalogue paths are paths which are constructed and offered by the infrastructure manager (IM)using various parameters and not specifically requested by any RU. A catalogue path may be basedon the IM’s’ experience or on the RU’s’ requirements or it may have been “pre-produced” in advanceaccording to the RU’s’ specification. Depending on the time at which they are produced within theprocess of approving the annual timetable, a distinction is made between two types of cataloguepaths.According to International Timetable Process, Catalogue Paths do not belong to RU´s at any stageof the process and are proposed by the IM´s to facilitated work for RZ´s and IM´s.3.2.1 Differentiation by availability3.2.1.1 Static catalogue pathsAt the start of the approval process between the RU’s and the IM’s, (X-14 to x-8) the IM’s canproduce static catalogue paths. Static catalogue paths represent theoretically usable paths with noindication of their actual availability. Static catalogue paths can be useful to the RU’s in simplifyingpath enquiries.3.2.1.2 Dynamic catalogue pathsOnce the annual timetable has come into effect, the catalogue paths that are still available can bestored in Pathfinder as capacity for use during the year. The calendar of dates in service can beused to show for each of these catalogue paths on which specific days they are still available.Differentiation by availability therefore depends essentially on the time at which a catalogue path iscreated in Pathfinder. Before the time when the paths are allocated by the IM’s, the availability ofthe catalogue paths is generally not updated. Catalogue paths are then “sample paths” for theRU’s. After the path allocation process (ca. X-6) the “dynamic” catalogue paths represent capacitythat is still available but has already been planned for.Both types of catalogue paths are handled and implemented in the same way.Ordering dateTimetable changestatic catalogue paths as"sample paths" for use inordering by the RUs, withno updating of theiravailability (days ofcirculation)dynamic catalogue pathsas planned capacity.Availability demonstratedin terms of days ofcirculationX-5 towards timetable changeDecember 2010 Page 30 of 133
Pathfinder Orange Book Version 2.2.43.2.2 Differentiation by length or stage of agreement3.2.2.1 Catalogue pathInternational catalogue path is a succession of national sections of path agreed on a corridor.Typical RNE corridors are for example “No.4 Hamburg / Bremerhaven - Munich – Verona“ or „No. 5Rotterdam / Gent / Antwerp - Luxembourg - Marseille / Basel“3.2.2.2 Catalogue path elementsA catalogue path element is a national path section.This distinction makes it clear that both those catalogue paths which have already been agreedbetween IM’s (corridors) and also shorter, e.g. national paths, can be stored in the path catalogue.1 05:50 Frankfurt Single tractionDB(Main) Central Station Vmax (km/h) = 180Length (m) = 250Load (t) = 50Eng = 82, Re 4/42 06:05 FRANKFURT Airport3 06:55 KOELN HBF407:30DUISBURG HBFDBnetwork5 DUISBURG-HOCHFELD SUED DBnetwork608:30ARNHEM GSDBnetwork7 08:35 ARNHEM GS ProRail8 09:10 UTRECHT ProRail9 09:40 AMSTERDAM CENTRAAL ProRailCatalogue path elementCataloguepathelemenCatalogue path corridor3.3 Representation of catalogue paths in PathfinderAll types of catalogue paths can be stored and managed in Pathfinder. From Pathfinder’s point ofview, the different types described above are treated in the same way. The static catalogue pathscan be entered in Pathfinder via Integration Platform by the usage of “createDossier” web service.The usage of national adapter is deprecated, but it is supported until the end of 2009: the nationaladapter can be used for import at the start of the agreement period. For these paths, the dates inservice can be entered which have been planned for them. Their availability on a specific date inservice is not updated, nor are catalogue paths, which have already been allocated, deleted from thesystem.For the dynamic catalogue paths, the availability of the path is indicated by means of the “dates inservice” function. The IM’s can release or block the path for specific dates in service; this can bedone manually or via the Pathfinder Integration Platform.Catalogue path corridors and catalogue path elements are treated exactly the same inPathfinder. Both types can be entered, agreed and requested. From the point of view of Pathfinder,these types are distinguished only by the number of service points.In what follows, the term catalogue path is generally used to include all types mentioned here, unlessa particular type is explicitly excluded.December 2010 Page 31 of 133
