We describe an algorithmic approach to determine an efficient railway rolling stock circulation ona single line or on a set of interacting lines. Given the timetable and the passengers? seatdemand, we develop a branch-and-price algorithm that results in an allocation of rolling stockmaterial to...

This paper deals with real-time disruption management of rolling stock in passenger railway transportation. We describe a generic framework for dealing with disruptions of railway rolling stock schedules. The framework is presented as an online combinatorial decision problem, where the...
