“…Example of the graphical compression of train paths according to the UIC methodology on the train traffic diagram [4] The key question is how to estimate the occupation time. Average occupation times per train in principle consist of the travel time in the boundary section and the operation interval time [4].…”

“…The final result -the socalled practical throughput capacity of this critical section -is then declared as a summary for the whole line section, namely, in absolute terms, the number of trains within a certain time window (usually 24 hours) [2,4,10].…”

“…The value of capacity consumption changes with each added train path. The capacity consumption was determined according to the new methodology of the Department of Railway Transport, University of Žilina [2,4,5]. It uses a graphical approach for determining the capacity consumption, either by a direct determination of occupation time, or determination of the computing framework area in one block section [2], [11].…”

Following the liberalisation of the railway infrastructure, the non-discriminatory approach to each railway undertaking is necessary, including the issue of the train paths provision in terms of the railway infrastructure capacity. Expression and provision of the throughput capacity of the railway network by absolute number of train paths appear to be inadequate and inaccurate at first glance. There are many ways of calculating the capacity of rail infrastructure, as well as several ways of expressing it. The paper describes the testing of the railway infrastructure capacity in a computer based simulation model, which provides results for further research in the area of this issue. Two hypotheses oriented towards the research on the linear dependence of capacity on the number of train paths as well as towards the need for capacity estimation for a whole track or for only one block section are tested.

“…For successful use of this transport, the railways to meet the following conditions: improved responsibility, optimized network of intermodal terminals and flexible reaction of carriers to customer's requirements. When railway transport is able to connect to the intermodal transport mode effectively, then it is possible to move transport volume of goods from road to railway [1,2,4].…”
