Abstract The paper introduces the principle of laying out railway horizontal curve 6y using polar coordinate method at arbitrary point, and concludes the mathematic models of middle stake and side slope stakes' coordinate calculations. It has been realized by designing program on Visual Basic. The method of calculation that being designed to laying out the railway curve in fieldwork is simple, clear and true.
