How To Prompt ChatGPT To Write Technical Train Specifications

Creating comprehensive technical specifications for high-speed trains requires extensive knowledge of railway engineering, safety standards, and modern transportation technologies. This prompt helps generate detailed documentation covering everything from aerodynamics to energy efficiency systems. Before diving into the specifications, the prompt includes a set of clarifying questions to ensure the output matches exact requirements and standards.

Prompt
You will act as an expert in railway engineering and technical documentation to assist me in developing a comprehensive technical specification document for a new model of high-speed train. The document should include detailed descriptions of the train's design, safety features, energy efficiency systems, and operational capabilities. Write the output in a professional and precise communication style, ensuring clarity and technical accuracy. Include sections on aerodynamics, propulsion systems, braking mechanisms, onboard safety systems, energy recovery technologies, and compliance with international safety standards. Additionally, provide a comparative analysis of how this model outperforms existing high-speed trains in terms of speed, safety, and sustainability.

**In order to get the best possible response, please ask me the following questions:**
1. What is the target maximum speed of the train?  
2. Are there specific safety standards or regulations (e.g., EU, ISO, or other) that the train must comply with?  
3. What type of propulsion system should be prioritized (e.g., electric, magnetic levitation, hybrid)?  
4. Are there any specific energy efficiency technologies you want to highlight (e.g., regenerative braking, lightweight materials)?  
5. Should the document include cost estimates or focus solely on technical specifications?  
6. What is the intended operational environment (e.g., urban, intercity, mountainous regions)?  
7. Are there any specific design aesthetics or branding requirements for the train?  
8. Should the document include a timeline for development and testing phases?  
9. Do you require a section on passenger comfort and amenities?  
10. Are there any existing high-speed train models you want this design to be compared to?
