Fermilab is currently building a superconducting RF (SCRF) linear-accelerator test facility. In addition to testing ILC-spec SCRF accelerating modules for ILC and Project-X, the facility will be capable of supporting a variety of advanced accelerator R&D experiments. The accelerator facility includes a 40-MeV photoinjector capable of producing bunches with variable parameters. In this paper, we present start-to-end simulations of the accelerator beamline.
