This paper introduces the current research status of train operation mode especially the one based on the train moving-block system. Then it improves on the basis of the Vehicle-to-Ground(V2G) communication technology and the traditional fixed-block system constructs a virtual combination model based on the train moving-block system and Vehicle-to-Vehicle(V2V) communication technology. Through the construction of state flow-diagram of the entering and leaving the Virtual Coupling train-following model and calculation of the train capacity, discussion and analysis are carried out in different scenarios, including train tracking at the station, arriving at the station, sending out from the station, etc. Finally, the scene of two trains tracking through the station is simulated and compared with the traditional fixed-block operation mode in ideal circumstances. The results show that the new operation mode proposed in this paper can improve the railway capacity and train operation efficiency. In the future railway development, this kind of operation mode has certain efficiency.
