Intelligent Framework Design of Railway Marshalling Stations

This paper systematically elaborates on the development framework for the intelligentization of railway marshalling stations. It first reviews the developmental path from mechanization and automation to the new generation of integrated automation, pointing out that the current stage is a critical period where informatization is largely achieved, automation is deepening, and intelligentization is commencing. The study distills the technical characteristics of intelligent railway marshalling stations as “digitalization as the foundation, integration as the bridge, automation as the support, intelligence as the leading force, software-defined, data-driven, and virtual-physical integration.” Furthermore, it constructs an intelligent architecture system encompassing key modules such as intelligent operations, scheduling, safeguarding,and digital yards, providing theoretical reference for the intelligent transformation of railway marshalling stations.
