Abstract

The article is devoted to the development of the model for finding an optimal route for a combined route container train (CRCT), i.e. a train with a designated route and schedule, en route from the initial to the final station without reforming of a rolling stock, but carrying out cargo handling operations for loading/unloading containers at intermediate stops of the route. It is proposed to call the optimal route of a CRCT, which provides the minimum delivery time while ensuring the targeted train loading on each section and with a set value of demand for container transportation at each point of the route. A software implementation of the model in the MS Excel environment is proposed using the built-in generalized reduced gradient algorithm.
