Abstract
A method of speed forecasting a train over a track including determining location of the train on the track, the speed of the train and brake and throttle setting of the train. Speeds and suggested throttle and brake settings for spaced points along the track are calculated based on the determinations. The calculated speeds and throttle and brake setting are displayed for the spaced points along the track.
