Abstract

Based on the characteristics of operation mode for systems of intercity railway lines, this paper analyzes the dynamic relationship between passenger flow and train service plan. The dynamic relationship is described by using mathematical methods in terms of the close correlation between properties of transport products and technical indicators of train service plan. A real-life instance of Beijing-Tianjin intercity railway line is given to show that dynamic methods can provide operator with better decisions.
