Local planning
After a timetable of trains through the railway network has been determined
according to Section 3.1, a subsequent problem arises: how to route the trains
through the railway infrastructure of a specific station? In Section 6.1, we
look at this problem in more detail. The shunting problem, which takes place
at individual stations, following from the rolling stock circulation is discussed
in Section 6.2. Finally, the crew rostering problem is discussed in Section 6.3.
