An integrated approach to node and station operation analysis is possible by means of analytical methods, customized to this scope. Alternatively, the simulation models allow more in-depth analyses aiming at the optimization of the use of capacity. The general goals of the research are the comparison of methods for the assessment of railway lines and nodes’ capacity, suitability for specific tasks, and stability of the results under variable scenarios. The comparison is finalised to quantify the relative level of confidence of the concerned literature methods. The work is part of a larger research project with the final goal of identifying the most appropriate approach for the optimization of the network capacity and the setup of specific g...
