Abstract

After the completion and operation of the HSR (short for high-speed railway), a portion of passenger train flows in the existing parallel lines will transfer to the HSR, which is going to bring changes in the structure of train operation diagram, influences the carrying capacity of existing lines and releases the freight capacity of the network as well. This paper adopts the improved deduction coefficient method to calculate the releasing value of freight capacity in two cases, namely the decentralized dispatching and the continuous dispatching. Compared with the traditional deduction coefficient method, the result of the improved method is closer to the practical freight capacity. Taking Wuhan-Guangzhou segment of Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway for example, this paper quantifies the releasing value of freight capacity of Wuhan-Guangzhou segment belonging to the existing line based on comparative analysis of the number of passenger trains before and after the opening of the high-speed railway
