contents <p>This dataset contains a high-resolution simulation video of Mexico City Metro Line 4 operations, generated using a cellular automaton model based on the Nagel–Schreckenberg (NaSch) framework. The model incorporates a physically consistent representation of the railway corridor, including spatially extended stations with a length of 150 meters and a total corridor length of 9513 meters.</p> <p>The simulation reproduces bidirectional train circulation between the terminal stations Martín Carrera and Santa Anita over a full operational period from 05:00 to 01:00. Passenger demand is modeled using empirically calibrated daily station inflows combined with a normalized hourly demand distribution. Passenger arrivals follow a Poisson process, while boarding and alighting dynamics are governed by capacity constraints and an origin–destination (OD) matrix.</p> <p>The video includes a dynamic visualization of:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Train positions along the corridor in both directions</p> </li> <li> <p>Spatially extended station segments</p> </li> <li> <p>Passenger queues at each station</p> </li> <li> <p>Accumulated passenger arrivals</p> </li> <li> <p>Total onboard passenger load</p> </li> </ul> <p>Additionally, the simulation accounts for dwell times dependent on station demand, stochastic train dynamics, and realistic terminal turnaround operations.</p> <p>This video is intended to support reproducibility and provide a visual interpretation of the system dynamics described in the associated research work. It can be used for validation, educational purposes, and further research on urban rail transport modeling.</p>
