Abstract
Methods and systems implement an output interface of a display computing system to display a visualization of predictive output of an onboard computing system of a train. A display computing system obtains, from an onboard predictive control system of a train traveling along a rail from a departure to a destination, predicted speeds which the predictive control system uses to preemptively adjust control signals sent by an onboard train control system of the train. The display computing system provides a visualization of the predicted speeds obtained by the predictive control system.
