Abstract

To cope with growing passenger demand and to provide better services, increasing the number of trains is desired for certain lines. Maximum possible throughput of a line is often limited due to the limited number of platforms at the terminal, which was the case with two bullet-train lines originating from Tokyo. In these lines, there exists an intermediate station in the close vicinity of the terminal. This paper proposes a network-based optimization model to analyze the throughput of a line when turn-backs at the adjacent station are introduced to increase the line capacity.
