# TikZ-trackschematic
------------
# Installation
The tikz library is contained in the files:
* tikzlibrarytrackschematic.code.tex,
* tikzlibrarytrackschematic.topology.code.tex,
* tikzlibrarytrackschematic.trafficcontrol.code.tex,
* tikzlibrarytrackschematic.vehicles.code.tex,
* tikzlibrarytrackschematic.constructions.code.tex, and
* tikzlibrarytrackschematic.messures.code.tex.
These files should be copied wherever TeX can find it, for example in your TEXMF folder. The library can then be loaded through the command \usetikzlibrary{trackschematic} in any tex file.
------------
# Usage
```TeX
\documentclass[tikz]{standalone}
\usetikzlibrary{trackschematic}
\begin{document}
\begin{tikzpicture}
\coordinate (A) at (0,0);
\coordinate (B) at (6,0);
\coordinate (T) at (5,0);
\maintrack (A) -- (B);
\train[forward] at (T) label (train);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{document}
