Abstract

A control system for a train is disclosed. The system may include an input/output (I/O) module configured to receive one or more inputs indicative of operating parameters of the train, a plurality of energy management modules configured to generate control signals associated with components of the train based on the operating parameters of the train, an interface gateway in communication with each of the plurality of energy management modules, and a control module in communication with the I/O module and the interface gateway. The control module may be configured to select one of the energy management modules based on the one or more inputs received by the I/O module, receive control signals via the interface gateway from the selected one of the energy management modules, and send command signals to components of the train based on the control signals from the selected one of the energy management modules.
