The Impact of Delays of Freight Trains in JIT System on Example One Track Line

Abstract

The paper describes the problem between freight trains operated by Metrans Danube, a.s. and passenger trains operated by Regiojet, a.s on the line Bratislava-Dunajská Streda-Komárno. It is very important to emphasize this problem because, nowadays, mostly freight trains across the Europe drive in just in time system, it means, that shipments are delivered at exact time and place on time. At this line there are many problems not only this track line is single track, so it is necessary to cross the trains very often in traffic points which maximum 2 traffic tracks but also organizing of transport is more complicated which is provided by Railway infrastructure managerthis case is very important example when railway traffic technology slows down all processes in the logistic chain.

Approach Methodology for Comprehensive Assessing the Public Passenger Transport Timetable Performances at a Regional Scale

“…The issue of public passenger transport quality assessment, to a certain extent, has already been addressed in several publications [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. Nevertheless, results of these studies point only to partial evaluations of the quality of individual transport sections, while there is lack of reference and link to the individual timetable evaluations as a whole.…”

“…At present, achieving a uniform, sustainable, integrated, and efficient transport system requires creation of transfer links and interconnections across all modes of transport. The availability of destinations and the frequency of connections are the most important criteria in terms of passengers' interest in public transport [1][2][3].…”

“…It can be stated that, from a spatial point of view, the transport network intended to serve as regular passenger transport is rather well developed and sufficiently covers transport areas of public interest. Compared to the EU average, however, the quality of examined transport network effect of the transport network utilization on optimization algorithms [1][2][3]12], whilst others deal with periodic transport modes on transport networks and their optimization [6,7]. For instance, authors in [13,14] present a particular transport network, specifically railway transport infrastructure in regard to the quality evaluation.…”

“…Previous research studies [8][9][10][11][12] have confirmed that the quality of transport infrastructure is considered a crucial element which makes decisions about the foreign investment allocation very often. The offered quality of transport network connectivity is considerably related to services provided within transport sector [4].The main task of transport is to satisfy the customers' requirements for quality, flexible, fast, and safe transportation of passengers and cargo [1,3]. Quality is differently perceived from the transport user [12], transport services provider, or transport organizer point of view, but also from the society-wide point of view.…”
