Abstract
Fillability of a schedule, down time of trains, quality of a schedule, the use of train paths, reduction of operating costs, train paths, distribution of trains. The problem of reduction of operating costs for the train traffic between technical stations is considered. The analysis of the use of a train schedule is made in this paper. The dependence of operating costs on the route speed, the quality of a schedule and its fillability is established. A solution to the problem of improving the quality of filling the schedule, expressed in the use of train paths of certain categories (direct, or having a stop on the section between the technical stations) is proposed. A method for determining the down time of trains at technical stations is proposed, depending on the fillability of a schedule. The forecast of the change in the main operating indicators and operating costs for the application of the proposed technology for the departure of trains was made.
Highlights
The problem of making the optimal schedule for the train traffic, which makes it possible to link the work of all the railway units, is on the agenda throughout the entire existence of the railway transport
On the basis of the data obtained, it can be concluded that the increase in route speed leads to a reduction in costs. It can be seen from the graph above that when the route speed is increased by 8.6% of the minimum value, the operating costs are reduced by 17%
Effective use of the existing train traffic schedule leads to an increase in operating costs
Summary
The problem of making the optimal schedule for the train traffic, which makes it possible to link the work of all the railway units, is on the agenda throughout the entire existence of the railway transport. The problem of the economic efficiency of the train traffic schedule is of a great importance. One of the examples of realization of the idea of economically optimal schedule is the “Elbrus” system. There are a number of unsolved problems in the field of schedule optimization at the moment
