The invention relates to a method for automatically generating railway signal interlocking tables based on a templating technique. The method comprises the steps that a series of interlocking table generating templates are designed, wherein each generating template corresponds an interlocking table output format of a type of signal items, and interlocking table generating templates of different service items are different; a series of signal system design database information matching tables are designed, wherein each matching table is used for defining how to retrieve equipment information ofa type of signal system design databases into the interlocking tables. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages of being wide in application range and the like.
