Improvement of service technology on railway branch roads

Abstract

The article highlights the issues of effective use of shunting locomotives by introducing shunting winches on branch lines of railway transport, as well as improving the technology of effective service for freight forwarders. For this, the article envisages achieving it by optimizing the sequence of execution of several technological processes. Including: the time it takes for one wagon to be occupied for entering and exiting the branch tracks, the number of wagons entering and exiting the branch tracks during the time interval in question, as well as revising the locomotive occupancy times depending on the wagon, freeing the shunting locomotive from additional inefficient work issues of more efficient use of shunting locomotives by introducing shunting winches are scientifically based.
