Die Hohe Kunst Des Fahrplans
Themendienst Faktor X oder: Die hohe Kunst des Fahrplans Wie in nur 18 Monaten aus rund 65.000 Verkehrsanmeldungen von über 400 Eisenbahnverkehrsunternehmen Jahr für Jahr ein robuster Netzfahrplan entsteht (Frankfurt am Main, Dezember 2016) Letztlich interessiert den Reisenden doch nur eines: der Zug soll pünktlich am Bahnsteig vorfahren und ebenso im angegebenen Zeitfenster sein Fahrtziel erreichen. Gleiches gilt für den Endkunden im Güterverkehr, dem daran liegt, dass sein Transport rechtzeitig abgeholt oder bereitgestellt wird. Eigentlich ganz einfach – so scheint es… Damit der Bahnverkehr bundesweit konfliktfrei, in hoher Qualität und möglichst nahtlos ineinander greifend funktioniert, arbeiten hinter den Kulissen etwa 140 Konstrukteure im Netzfahrplan der DB Netz AG daran, dass auf dem rund 33.300 Kilometer langen Schienennetz für jeden der täglich 40.000 Personen- und Güterzüge ein passender, freier Abschnitt gefunden werden kann. Diese Aufgabe erinnert mitunter an die Quadratur des Kreises. So sollen etwa lange Wartezeiten vermieden und Fahrtzeiten möglichst kurz gehalten werden. Die Umsteigedauer hingegen ist ausreichend lang zu bemessen. Zudem muss der Fahrplan neue oder weiterentwickelte Infrastruktur, Forderungen des Gesetzgebers, Baumaßnahmen und Kapazitätsengpässe abbilden. Bei alledem soll er Taktverkehre und Anforderungen des Güterverkehrs integrieren und so robust sein, dass bei Verspätungen einzelner Züge nicht die gesamte Pünktlichkeit leidet. Um all diese Faktoren bis zum Fahrplanwechsel am Tag „X“ unter einen Hut zu bekommen, brauchen die Fahrplaner einen vergleichsweise langen Vorlauf. X-18: Eineinhalb Jahre vor dem Fahrplanwechsel wird die verfügbare Infrastruktur festgeschrieben. X-17: Bahnunternehmen werden über Planungsprämissen im neuen Fahrplanjahr informiert. Dazu zählen beispielsweise Baumaßnahmen. X-10: Diese Planungsprämissen werden bei Bedarf noch einmal angepasst. -

Post and telephone 10. Hotels and restaurants 11. Culture and leisure 12. Shopping 13. Contact with the Germans 14. Appendix 1. Foreword Many of you have frequently visited other countries, either as scholars or as tourists. Some of you have spent lengthy periods abroad. But, for many of you, your forthcoming stay in Germany will be your first experience of another country and of a foreign culture. However, you will all be confronted with new and unaccustomed situations during the first few days. Many things are unfamiliar, not only the language. The simplest of needs, such as making a telephone call or taking a bus, can be complicated procedures. You don't know your way around yet but there are important matters to attend to, examples being finding accommodation and dealing with bureaucratic formalities. This brochure is intended to help you find your way around, not only in the first few days but also throughout the rest of your stay. However, in some situations, good advice will not be enough. You will also need imagination and patience, humour and tolerance. But please don't be discouraged! We hope you will swiftly succeed in adjusting and settling in and that you will soon feel at home in both your new place of residence and your new research centre.
