متن کاملComparison of the Economic Profitability of a Conventional Freight-Dedicated Railway Corridor and a Heavy Load Freight Corridor
By using mathematical models, this paper will compare the economic profitability of a heavy load freight corridor (30 t per axle) with a conventional freight-dedicated railway corridor (22.5 t per axle). This comparison concerns the construction and operation of a new, single-track of normal gauge, exclusively for freight traffic, and takes into account various demand values of freight volume (...
