Study of variation regularities of the number of passengers carried in rail transport
Abstract
During the examination of efficiency promotion measures of passengers carried in rail transport, the assessment of variation in passenger numbers in one or another section, where the respective measures are applied, is not enough. It is necessary to assess this variation by comparing it with variation in passenger numbers in the entire railway system, variation of state population and variation of gross domestic product. Due to the complexity of variation of the said indicators, the assessment is not always correct or visible. The article proposes the methodology created by authors and allowing comparing these indicators complexly and thus assessing the variation of passenger carriage in railway section.
