Abstract:In the United States, the freight railway industry is already running without much excess capacity. Hence, better planning and scheduling tools are needed to effectively manage the scarce resources, to cope with the rapidly increasing demand for railway transportation. The integration of freight train and passenger train scheduling and dispatching is an important railroad management task since in many urban centers they share the same track resources. Leveraging the current railroad trackage to meet the expanding demand in the future is a challenge. The objective of this project is to improve the efficiency of freight trains by reducing their travelling times while maintaining the punctuality of passenger trains.
