This guideline is a short introduction to the naming policy of the model railway track layout svg.
Bell
•	the bell itself: bell
•	number and square next to the bell: bell0
•	sonic beams of the bell: bell_sonic
Error Messages
•	each train and wagon has a dedicated error label and number field to show errors
•	the label is identified with TRAIN_OR_WAGON_error
•	the number is identified with TRAIN_OR_WAGON_error_number
•	a train is identified with trainX
•	a wagon Y of train X is identified with trainX_Y. The front wagon has index 0, the rear wagon has index 1.
•	examples: train1_error, train5_error_number, train1_0_error, train5_1_error_number
•	there is one additional error label and number to show collision errors. These are collision_error and collision_error_number
Lamps
•	lamp and corresponding number: lampX (e.g. lamp0)
•	only the background of the lamps (without the corresponding number): lampX_bg (e.g. lamp0_bg)
Points
•	point and corresponding number: pointX (e.g. point0)
•	only the background of the points (without the corresponding number): pointX_bg (e.g. point0_bg)
Railroad Crossing
•	number and circle: rcX (e.g. rc0)
•	closed railroad gates (long): gateX (e.g. gate0)
•	open railroad gates (short): ogateX (e.g. ogate0)
Signals
•	on unidirectional tracks: track name and chosen color (e.g. OC_LN_2Red)
•	on bidirectional tracks: track name, direction and chosen color (e.g. KH_ST_1fwdYellow or KH_ST_1revYellow)
Contacts
•	contactX followed by its corresponding track name (e.g. contact0KH_ST_3, contact1_KH_ST_3)
•	the first contact in (main) travel direction has the index 0, whereas the second contact hat the index 1.
Tracks
•	without branches: the corresponding track name (e.g. KH_ST_0)
•	with branches: track and branch name merged with branch (e.g. KH_ST_0branchKIO_LN_0)
Trains
•	the general naming scheme is trainX followed by the wagon _Y. The front wagon has index 0, the rear wagon has index 1.
•	front wagons: train0_0, train1_0, etc.
•	rear wagon: train0_1, train1_1, etc.
Areas
•	pink area: KH_ST_area
•	yellow area: IC_ST_area
•	green area: OC_ST_area
