High Speed Rail Passenger Satisfaction according to Socio-Demographic Variables in Turkey

Dynamic pricing for passenger groups of high-speed rail transportation

The widespread high-speed rail has become an important transportation mode for tourists in China, who travel primarily in groups. With more attractive price, railway operators may be able to expand ridership, improve customer satisfaction, and ultimately increase revenue. The traditional pricing method for passenger groups, however, is relatively simple, inflexible, which may lead to profit los...

When to invest in high speed rail

Study on different solutions to reduce the dynamic impacts in transition zones for high-speed rail

Intermodal Competition in The London-Paris Passenger Market: High-Speed Rail and Air Transport

This paper studies interand intramodal competition in the London-Paris passenger market. Using revealed preference data, we estimate nested and mixed multinomial logit models to examine passenger behaviour in the London-Paris market. We present a case study on the relocation of Eurostar services from Waterloo International to St Pancras International station. The results show that competition i...

Optimizing train stopping patterns and schedules for high-speed passenger rail corridors

High-speed railway (HSR) systems have been developing rapidly in China and various other countries throughout the past decade; as a result, the question of how to efficiently operate such large-scale systems is posing a new challenge to the railway industry. A high-quality train timetable should take full advantage of the system’s capacity to meet transportation demands. This paper presents a m...
