Abstract

This article describes the fast and effective UIC 406 method for calculating capacity consumption on railway lines. It is possible to expound the UIC 406 method in different ways which can lead to different capacity consumptions. Therefore, this article describes how the methodology is expounded in Denmark. This includes how and where to divide the railway lines into line sections, how to analyze stations and junctions, and how to examine line sections with different amounts of tracks.
