Abstract The recent rapid development of the computer‐aided design technologies has provided concrete support for the education and research in the field of railway transportation. Virtual reality (VR) technology is becoming particularly important in the field of experimental teaching due to its low cost, low restriction and immersion. In this work, we have designed a virtual simulation untried system of the electric joint control in electric locomotives based on VR technology. Based on the user's understanding of the three circuit principles in the experiment, together with the recognition and operation ability to control appliances and equipment, the system assessment system has been scored and evaluated accordingly. The tests of the virtual simulation system have shown the experimental teaching can reduce the cost while effectively improving the learning effect.
