MATLAB for Regenerative Braking of Train

Hi is it possible to create a simulink model or source code of regenerative braking for train diesel-electric using MATLAB? Has anyone done it before? Can you share some of your simulation?

This very simple example demonstrates regenerative braking in an electric vehicle:

The same principles will apply to a diesel-electric train.

A more elaborate example is shown here:
