[QUOTE]Originally posted by 1600hf: [QB] Hi there, I am Peter, I am a student and I am trying to solve a shunting problem for a steel factory. I have browsed all over Wikipedia to get familiar with train terminology. And many question still! I am building a simulator for this steel plant. And the object model is almost finished. My first question on this would be: If I call a 'train' a locomotive with 'wagons'. What kind of name could I give to the set of wagons behind the loc? Is that a 'wagon-set' or something?

Could be that there are two different terms for that also. Thanks, Peter
