International Journal of TRANSPORT TM Volume 1, Number 3, 2017 SPECIALISSUE Objectives The International Journal of Transport Development and Integration covers all transportation modes and the general topic of transport systems, with particular emphasis on their integration and harmonisation. The Journal addresses the areas of urban and road transportation, maritime and fluvial transport, rail and aviation, and topics related to logistics, optimisation and complex systems, amongst others. The growing need for integration is partly to respond to the many advances that are taking place in transportation and in order to achieve better uses of all systems, with the subsequent gains in energy efficiency. There is also the need for integration of transportation with telecommunications systems and IT in order to improve safety, security and efficiency. The Journal aims to report on advanced railways transport modes, including passenger, freight and transit systems. It welcomes contributions in the field of marine and fluvial transport. The Journal also covers papers resulting from the rapid growth in air freight and passenger transportation, together with the need to develop the required airport facilities. Transportation is one of the largest consumers of energy, particularly hydrocarbons, and has a considerable share of the economics of governments, industry and households. COORDINATOR C. A.

Int. J. Transp. Dev. Integr., Vol. 1, No. 3 (2017) iii PREFACE The papers contained in this issue are a selection of those presented at the Conference on Railway Engineering, Design and Operation (COMPRAIL16) which took place in Madrid, organised by the Wessex Institute of Technology. The Meeting, which started in Frankfurt in 1987, has been successfully reconvened every two years in different locations around the world. The Conference aims to present and discuss the use of advanced railway systems, promoting general awareness of new developments in the management, design, manufacture and operation of railways and related transport systems. It emphasises the use of computer systems in advanced railway engineering. Modern railway engineering attracts a variety of disciplines including managers, consultants, designers of train control systems and computer specialists, in addition to railway engineers. This is reflected in the contents of this issue, which also demonstrates the diversity and the international character of modern railway engineering development. The papers contained in this issue, as well as all others presented at the Wessex Institute Conferences are archived in the Institute’s eLibrary (witpress.com/elibrary) where they are permanently available to the international community.

KABLUkovA2 1Far Eastern State Transport University, Russia. 2Computing Center, Far Eastern Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, Russia. ABSTRACT The article explores the problem of train rescheduling based on the actual situation. The proposed sto- chastic model uses specific distributions of operating times which are dependent on the current traffic conditions. The arrival time distribution is considered as a result of adjusting the train trajectory by speed control. The results of modelled arrival distributions correspond well with the experimental data received at the Russian Railways. The proposed model is used for prevention of sequence-of-trains conflicts and violations of connections. The basis of deviation prediction is two-train model of mesa- level which uses actual features of scattering of the operation times both at sites and at stations. The article also proposed a new measure of arrival delay which considers the share of satisfied passengers. Keywords: local adjustments, online rescheduling, stochastic mesa-mode, train traffic. 1 INTRODUCTION Modelling the train traffic on the railway section is necessary for the optimal schedule
