ANALYSIS OF CARRIAGE FLOWS AT THE RAILWAY STATION "KAGANDY-SURYPTAU"
The article presents the results of research works carried out in the field of mainline railway transport. The work of railway transport in the conditions of the station «Karaganda-Suryptau» is studied. The analysis of the main indicators (car turnover, simple transit car with processing, simple transit car without processing, simple car under cargo operations) of the work of the station «Karaganda-Suryptau». The analysis was carried out using a scientific methodology for predicting changes in the main indicators of railway stations in the future. The forecast is made by approximating the main indicators in a function of time. According to the results of the calculation, approximating functions and graphs of changes in the main indicators of the operation of the station «Karaganda-Suryptau» for the future are obtained. The main measures to improve the operation of the station «Kagandy-Suryptau» are considered.
