University of Denmark 1 Abstract The subject “Railway capacity” is a combination of the capacity consumption and how the capacity is utilized. The capacity utilization of railways can be divided into 4 core elements: The number of trains; the average speed; the heterogeneity of the operation; and the stability. This article describes how the capacity consumption for railways can be worked out and analytical measurements of how the capacity is utilized. Furthermore‚ the article describes how it is possible

the infant railway with high speed development with is slowly becoming reality to some. As planned it will have a free wifi in many of the trains and for sure this will take a lot of drivers off the road. It is clear that this is an important step for high speed rail not only in the Midwest but also in US. Speed of up 100mph is very exciting at the same time scary‚ it is imperative that the trains succeed and help convince the country that train especially high speed can help reduce use of fossil
