Abstract

The article presents the concept of using self-propelled railway sets, as a system to increase the share of rail transport in total freight transport. The area taken into considerations is the West Pomerania Province, including in particular the Szczecin Metropolitan Area.Considerations taken in the article arise directly from the author's previous publications, including the developed feasibility study on the opening of the passenger rail network (Szczecin Metropolitan Railway) on the designated area, fully integrated with other forms of passenger transport - organized and individual. Modernization of the railway infrastructure assumed in the study may also constitute the potential for the future development of rail freight transport in the region - in the form of the “Light Freight Railway”.
