Abstract

The destination of this chapter is to introduce the theories on train operation in emergencies. It first gives a definition of emergency and classifies the emergencies. Then it analyzes the railway transportation system in emergencies, including the system composition, boundary, function, evolution, and reconstruction of the system. It also presents a macroscopic model of railway transport organization in emergencies, and discusses the difference between train operation organization and normal condition in emergencies. At last it proposes the train operation organization strategies in emergencies.
