Systematization of factors influencing train movement

Abstract

The main goal of the work is to identify and systematize the factors that determine the quality indicators of railway transport, affecting traffic safety, and to develop directions for increasing the level of traffic safety. Factors influencing the safety of train traffic have been identified and systematized according to 7 criteria. In order to increase the level of train safety, based on the results of analysis and assessment of the factors influencing them along the route, the main directions of measures to improve the level of safety were developed based on the Hoshina-Kanri principle. The developed mechanism determines what measures should be implemented at stations, terminals and freight facilities to improve train safety.
