This paper investigates the rail service patterns by train class. The emphasis in intercity rail planning is to more efficiently use of existing station facilities. Rail transit operations are affected by the system layout and ridership patterns and by work rules. Operations are also influenced by past practices and the institutional setting. Main factors to decide train service patterns are the location, socioeconomic characteristics, land use and travel demand of the station. In this context, the travel demand of intercity rail station is of crucial significance. Tests on a KTX case shows that train service frequency can be efficiently decreased in weekday to transport the same passenger demand. The work has shown many subjects that need further research including various factors influencing on train frequency. This study serves the railroad authorities in planning and determining business strategy in the increasingly competitive environment of regional rail transport.

The line planning problem is to determine the origin and destination stations of the lines with their frequencies so as to meet the OD demands. Since the advent of high speed trains, Korea railway is confronted with the urgent difficulty to reconstruct the line configuration with the frequencies of each line and each fleet type so the demands could be newly created as well as satisfied. Furthermore. the existing trains except the high speed trains suffer from a longer traveling time than before. Now, to reduce the passenger traveling time, the trains with the various halting patterns are run in the same line. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new line planning model to consider the various halting patterns. Most of studies find the frequencies of each lines which meet the link traffic loads or minimum link frequencies. But these are based on the assumption of all stop patterns. Furthermore, it is not easy to include the actual constraints as like the minimum number of stops at a station, the maximum number of stops or a train, etc. We develop the line planning model considering not only the various halting patterns but also the actual constraints which is based on the multicommodity network flow model with the additional constraints.

In domestic mountain resort areas, a catenary system cannot be installed for the protection of the natural environment and view. Therefore, mountain trams must be operated wireless. In this study, a local ground pantograph, which supplies electricity to the battery on board, was developed for this purpose, and its performance was verified by tests. The system is installed on ground at stops or repair shops. While a bogie goes to the pantograph, the arms and collection shoes are raised by a spring force to make contact with the collection bar under the bogie so electric power can be supplied to the battery. Because it is a local ground type, it does not require a roof pantograph and catenary system. The system enables the mountain tram to run wireless. In addition, there is no separation and arc because it collects current while standing at stops or shops. The system has a long life because moving contact, which generates wear and damage to shoes, is avoided. The insulation resistance was above the criteria of 10 ㏁, and there was no abnormal temperature increase when a current of 335A was supplied for one hour.

Line capacity of railways is a core criterion to decide maximum trips in accordance with traffic demand and a priority in railway investment to improve transportation capability. Particularly, because two operators will start revenue services in the HSR from mid-2016, the line capacity should be carefully calculated and controlled to avoid conflicts between the maximum number of KTXs, and the number needed to guarantee the effective competition of the operators. Meanwhile, there have been many arguments about calculating the line capacity, because this number is affected by the number of trips by train types, stopping pattern and dwell time in each station, journey time, crossing or passing, safety headway between trains, etc. To deal successfully with these kinds of problems, this study proposes a simulation method to calculate the line capacity that considers train operation according to the operator's service policies.

전기철도에서 전차선은 차량에 직접 전력을 공급하는 설비로서 철도차량 운행 시 전차선의 사고를 예방하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 논문은 한국과 영국의 전기철도 전차선로의 안전성을 비교하기 위하여 영국의 전차선 안전성 분석 보고서와 한국의 전차선의 장애사례에 대한 데이터를 검토하였다. 분석한 데이터는 Fault Tree Analysis(FTA) 알고리즘에 적용하여 시스템의 신뢰도를 산정하는데 사용하였다. 이를 통해 전기철도 급전시스템의 사고율을 산정하여 각 요소별 및 전체 시스템의 신뢰도를 산정할 수 있었으며, 이는 유지보수주기 결정, 교체필요 요소의 결정 등에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
