Blog Entry Unlocked.
The graphical coach composition in IRI was developed over several iterations working with the Unicode font set, and trying out various different combinations. The whole graph CC has been painstakingly hand-coded from scratch. It is almost IMPOSSIBLE for it to resemble anything else available elsewhere - it would be a really uncanny coincidence. Please post a screenshot of what you saw, and we may look into it. Let's see what the other one looks like. :-)

fact, earlier iterations of the CC graph were also put up which did not look good on some browsers, and icon changes were made gradually. Thereafter, a desktop version was put, and later on a mobile version. The earlier design was much larger, and even ridiculed by members that it was "cartoonish". Thereafter, the fonts were made smaller and the edges were smoothed and rounded, and some tweaks were made - mixed Loco design for Diesel and Electric as well as a bidirectional tail denoting Rake Reversal - before members slowly started getting used to it.
.
Generally, features in IRI do not suddenly appear in polished form. They are first put on a rough, trial basis and are gradually evolved and refined over the course of several months, responding to direct feedback from members. Even now, we are not claiming that the CC in IRI is some "masterpiece" that we are jealously guarding. It is just a minor something that was developed for our members. Any other site which wants to adopt the design may freely do so, and make it better. We do not wish to hold any copyright on the design.
.
Thanks.

Yes sir, similarity was really unbelievable.
Now site is closed in public but I have tried to find out reasons. I got to know that IRI Coach composition was implemented much earlier. If possible I will try screenshot but at this point it's not possible.
The advantage of that pictorial diagram is that it becomes easy to identify errors while doing updates....

, I have no doubt that they were inspired from IRI .. A big achievement indeed and we must be proud..
The suggestion was given by members and those members can also be proud because their suggestion was considered effective by the top officials.
On one hand they official site trying to block pnr forum and on other side cris software taking "inspirations" from our members and software developing team of IRI...

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
