Abstract
The authors have proposed a method for the evaluation of train scheduling plans by making use of computer. This report is an application of the method to railway lines in reality. The authors selected the Den'en-toshi and Shin-tamagawa lines of Tokyu Corporation. The demand on the lines is forecast to increase. Additional two tracks are planned, but will not be constructed until 2003 AD.. A lot of attention is directed to the improvement of train scheduling as an effective measure for relieving congestion before the completion of the large investment on the infrastructure. In this report, three diagram plans are evaluated from various viewpoints such as total users' benefit, equality, and platform congestion for safety.
