Attributes ​

Attributes hold meta data about the VehicleModel.

id ​

A unique ID generated by the vehicle registry when creating a VehicleModel. Together with the version this can be used to uniquely identify a VehicleModel from the schedule data.

Example: ​

xml
<VehicleModel id="321">
  ...
</VehicleModel>

version ​

The version of the VehicleModel. When querying a VehicleModel the ID and version must be supplied. This ensures that VehicleModels can be updated without breaking other systems using it. A special operation to just query the most recent VehicleModel should also be available.

This version attribute must also be incremented if a referenced component like an Equipment or VehicleType changes.

Example: ​

xml
<VehicleModel version="4">
  ...
</VehicleModel>

created ​

The date when the VehicleModel was first created.

Example: ​

xml
<VehicleModel created="2002-01-30T07:00:00">
  ...
</VehicleModel>

changed ​

The date when the VehicleModel was last modified.

Example: ​

xml
<VehicleModel changed="2002-06-30T09:00:00">
  ...
</VehicleModel>

Properties ​

privateCodes ​

A list of private codes that uniquely identify the VehicleModel. Used to inter-operate with other systems. The type argument is an arbitrary string to define the type of code.

Example: ​

xml
<privateCodes>
  <PrivateCode type="UIC-Index">bb</PrivateCode>
</privateCodes>

Name ​

The common name or model designation of the VehicleModel (e.g., "Mercedes-Benz Citaro"). The name doesn't have to be unique. If a VehicleModel with the same name already exists, their differences should be explained in the description.

Example: ​

xml
<Description>Standard city bus with hybrid propulsion</Description>
