Eine Welt, in der jede Fluggesellschaft ihre eigenen Flughäfen besitzt, nur bestimmte Automarken auf Autobahnen zugelassen sind und Taxifahrer ihre Konkurrenten einfach aus dem Verkehr ziehen können erscheint wie eine reichlich absurde Vorstellung. Im deutschen Schienenverkehr ist diese...

This study quantifies the effect of train station openings on residential house prices across Germany over a 12-year period to provide generalizable evidence on the valuation of access to passenger rail by households. It is based on data on about 90 train station openings between 2009 and 2020...

Das Neun-Euro-Ticket war eines der größten Verkehrsexperimente der letzten Jahrzehnte. Was hat dieses Experiment bewirkt? Um dies zu beantworten, wurde die vierte Panel-Welle von repräsentativen Befragungsdaten ausgewertet, die im Rahmen des Projekts MOBICOR ("Mobilität in Zeiten der...

Urban Rail Transit Passenger Flow Modeling (URTPFM) is the foundation of urban rail transit (URT) planning, design, and operation. The motivation of this paper is to accurately and efficiently simulate passenger flow dynamics in URT systems. To this end, a State-dependent Multi-agent Discrete...

In a high-speed railway (HSR) corridor, diverse train services are provided by railway companies. These different trains’ features own various attributes (e.g., departure time, running speed, and fare) being the basis and focus for passengers deciding their travel. Besides, passenger’s...

The social costs of pollution and climate change hinge critically on humans’ ability to adapt. Based on transaction records from the world’s largest payment network, this research compiles daily travel flows and documents that China’s rapid expansion of high-speed railways (HSR)...

Competitive passenger rail can help workers access new or better jobs. This paper studies the wider economic impacts on local unemployment of the liberalized passenger rail between Ostrava, the third-biggest city in the Czech Republic, and Prague, its capital. The local impacts are estimated at...

Die neue Bundesregierung hält an dem verkehrspolitischen Ziel einer Steigerung des Verkehrs auf der Schiene fest. Dazu sieht sie im Koalitionsvertrag neben einer weiteren Erhöhung der Investitionen in die Schieneninfrastruktur auch eine prioritäre Ausrichtung der Finanzierung auf den...

The entry of High-Speed Railways (HSR) represents a disruptive competition to airlines, particularly for short- to medium-distance journeys. Utilizing a unique dataset that contains the details of all flights departing from Beijing to 113 domestic destinations in China since January 2009, we...

"This book examines employers' role in creating, upholding, and legitimating race-gender inequality on trains, planes, and cruise ships and focuses on employer's actions and statements related to racial and gender hierarchies among their workers."

Urban rail transit (URT) networks serve a large amount of travel demand in metropolitan areas. One of the fundamental challenges in URT demand management is the dynamic interaction between train frequencies and passenger routing behaviors, which becomes even more complicated in oversaturated...

The social costs of pollution and climate change hinge critically on humans’ ability to adapt. Based on transaction records from the world’s largest payment network, this research compiles daily travel flows and documents that China's rapid expansion of high-speed railways (HSR) facilitates...

The research aims to find the users “Passenger Satisfaction towards Railway services to analyze the social economic profile and level of satisfaction. The sample required for the study has been collected through structured questionnaire. The 100 sample size for the study taken. So as per...

Im Schienenpersonenfernverkehr bestehen trotz Bahnstrukturreform weiterhin hohe Markteintrittsbarrieren. Der Wettbewerb im Nah- und Schienengüterverkehr ist im Vergleich dazu bereits besser in Gang gekommen. Die Autoren schlagen einen innovativen Regulierungsansatz vor, um den intramodalen...

The entry of High-Speed Railways (HSR) represents a disruptive competition to air-lines, particularly for short- to medium-distance journeys. Utilizing a unique dataset that contains the details of all flights departing from Beijing to 113 domestic destinations in China since January 2009, we...

High-speed rail is a new mode of intercity passenger transportation. We review the history of high-speed rail development of the United States (US) and compare it with that of peer countries. With the rapid progress of HSR and the successful competition with cars and air travel between medium...

In research and practice, public transportation planning is executed in a series of steps, which are often divided into the strategic, the tactical, and the operational planning phase. Timetables are normally designed in the tactical phase, taking into account a given line plan, safety...

This research applied secondary data collection methods to predict passenger flows, which involved analyzing traffic flows at rail stations and statistical methods, which involved assessing the relationship between variables and regression. Observation methods were used to measure current...

In railway transportation, each train needs to have a timetable that specifies which track at which time will be occupied by it. This task can be addressed by automatization techniques both in generating a timetable and in optimizing an existing one. In this paper, we give an overview on the...

Railway stations are centers of mass accumulation of people. Additional regulations change the intensity of the flow of visitors and the time of entering the station. Delays become an essential factor affecting the perceived satisfaction with all services at stations. This paper analyzes the...
