Abstract. This article considers the issues of optimization of industrial railway station track distribution in order to improve the efficiency of wagon flow processing. The relevance of the topic is due to the need for rational use of limited track resources, increasing the throughput and processing capacity of stations, and reducing operating costs. The main attention is paid to the development of optimization models and methods that take into account the features of the formation and processing of wagon flows by destination, the schedule, the processing sequence and the limited track fund. The proposed solutions are based on the application of mathematical modeling methods, graph theory, linear and discrete programming. The results can be used to develop automated station control systems, which will significantly improve planning and operational distribution of wagons along the tracks, reduce rolling stock downtime and speed up cargo processing. Objective. To improve the method of distributing industrial railway stations tracks for the accumulation of wagon groups between individual destinations. The optimization problem is to find such a distribution of classification works between an industrial marshalling yard and freight stations, as well as such a distribution of marshalling yard tracks between individual destinations, which ensures minimal time costs for shunting operations.

Keywords: railway transport, industrial railway station, siding, shunting operations, accumulation of wagons, carriage routes.
