https://doi.org/10.30932/1992-3252-2016-14-3-11

Abstract

Using the example of railway direction Moscow–Penza the article provides economic justification for the use of passenger trains of unchanged composition in growing competition environment in the transport market. At the same time the role of strengthening customer loyalty in attracting additional passenger flow and the value of proposed methodological tools that provide the calculation of total costs for organization of trains with rigid train scheme, as well as revenue and payback indicators of capital investment are estimated.
