Description:
Rolling stock, i.e., the set of railway vehicles, is among the most
expensive and limited assets of a railway company and must be used
efficiently. We consider in this paper the re-optimization
problem to recover from unforeseen disruptions. We propose a
template concept that allows to recover cost minimal rolling
stock rotations from reference rotations under a large variety of
operational requirements. To this end, connection templates as
well as rotation templates are introduced and their
application within a rolling stock rotation planning model is
discussed. We present an implementation within the rolling stock rotation
optimization framework rotor and computational results for
scenarios provided by DB Fernverkehr AG, one of the
leading railway operators in Europe.
