This paper presents a planning approach using Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) to generate plans for driving trains. The main idea of a planning strategy is to generate a sequence of actions for an agent, which can use these actions to change its environment. CBR allows using prior experiences in the situation assessment task. In the proposed approach, each previous experience (if not applicable) is adjusted resulting in cases specializations. Our interest is reducing the number of corrections triggered when a case retrieved is not applicable, based on these specializations. Experiments showed that the plans generated using this proposed method had a significant increase in the number of cases recovered satisfactorily, also reducing the need of adaptations for the cases recovered.
