Technology of shunting operations to divide a group of Wagons in the freight train into two directions

The article examines the existing technology for selecting groups of wagon train's in two directions. It was revealed that shunting locomotives would travel "without useful" distance due to the standard length of station tracks. To determine the duration of shunting trips during the selection of wagons, a method for calculating the number of "cuts" in a train has been formulated. Two options for the technical equipment of the tracks for picking up wagons in two directions are proposed: the first is a one-way division of two tracks into separate sections; the second is a two-way splitting of two paths into separate sections. It has been determined that in the first variant of the station track reorganization, the time for picking up wagons is reduced by 15% and the mileage of shunting locomotives by 24%, in the second variant, the picking time for wagons is increased by +14% and the mileage of shunting locomotives is almost the same. The advantages of the proposed options for rebuilding station tracks, their economic effect and payback period have been substantiated.
