The purpose of this study is to predict the railway cargo volume on Busan new-port and north-port, in order to revitalize railway transport. This paper is organized as follows. Section 1 presents the description of the objective and methods on this study. Section 2 presents the status of Railway Cargo volumes and Construction plan of railway facilities in Busan New port. Section 3 presents the Forecast Railway Cargo volume using a volume ratio, actual volume records and another predicted datas. Section 4 summarizes our conclusions and further research topics. Especially, korea faces enforcement of green Logistics policy. Modal shift to trail freight transportation is one of ways, but there are no more detail plans. so it need that a cooperation system in government department, a indirect subside policy shift to rail freight transportation from trucking for revitalization of Railway Freight transportation.

Recently, the importance of rail in the carriage of freight is strongly emphasized. However, the role of rail in the carriage of freight has been decreasing. The purpose of this study is to suggest policy measures for increasing rail freight. Firstly, this study reviews the current situations of the rail freight in Korea and provides theories for the necessity of government support to rail freight transport. Various support measures are identified and evaluated. According to the evaluation, it is shown that the provision of subsidy for facility construction is the most desirable measure in the sense of cost effectiveness and durability of effect. Finally, detailed implementation strategies for the desirable support measures are suggested.

The purpose of this research is to identify the factors affecting the intention to adopt a transcontinental railway in Korea. We develop an empirically testable model that demonstrates the effects of factors including cost, service, and efficiency of railway transportation, on modal shift intention to railway, attitude of a Railway, and intention to adopt a Transcontinental Railway (KTAR) as a railway transportation mode in the end. A survey method enables us to analyze the model with a structural equation modeling. The empirical analysis reveals that two most influential factors-the modal shift to railway transportation and the attitude of a Railway-play roles in determining intention to adopt the Transcontinental Railway (KTAR). Of the factors of transportation mode, transportation cost has a greater impact than transportation service and transportation efficiency on the intention to adopt a Transcontinental Railway (KTAR).

최근 산업 발달과 더불어 증가하는 운송 물량과 일일 생활권의 확대 및 생활 수준의 향상으로 인해, 빠르고 편리하며 안전한 양질의 운송수단에 대한 요구가 점차 높아지고 있다. 이러한 요구의 증대는 자동차와 같은 개별적 운송수단의 증대를 유발하였으며, 기존의 제한된 도로에 대한 운송수단의 점유율을 증가시켰다. 그 결과, 운송소요시간이 불규칙해져 평균수송량이 감소했으며 이로 인해 운송효율이 급격히 저하되었다. 따라서 많은 양의 물량을 한 번에 수송할 수 있으며, 정확한 운송시간을 보장하는 철도차량과 같은 운송수단의 확대가 절실하게 되었다. 도심 내에서는 전기 철도차량인 지하철을 설치하여 점증하는 수요를 충족시켜 왔으며, 도심간에는 기존의 궤도를 이용하는 차량의 운송횟수를 늘려 운송량을 증가시켜 왔다. 그러나 최근, 계속된 수요의 증가로 인해 기존 방식의 철도차량 운송 능력도 포화상태에 이르게 되었다. 이에 따라 기존의 제한된 선로에서 운송량을 향상시키기 위한 연구와 함께 새로운 철도노선 확장 및 차량의 고속화를 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다.

Rail transportation system are needed to develop proper corresponds to satisfy various demands in freight transportation since there are many problems in rail transportation infrastructure and operation. This paper analyzes characteristics of rail transportation consumers and develops policy for vitality of rail transportation by survey of rail transportation consumers and AHP methodology. This paper is organized as follows. Section 1 presents the description of the objective and the methods for this study. Section 2 presents the description of the methods for analysis of characteristics of consumers of rail freight transportation. Section 3 presents the characteristics of rail transportation consumers by analysis the survey results of rail transportation consumers. Section 4 summarizes our conclusions and discusses further research topics.

The major trade area of the South Korea is divided into Asia, America and Europe. Generally, marine transportation is the main method of mass cargo transportation, but unlike others, rail transportation is available in the Europe area. Also, as a result of China's growth, South Korea's position as northeast Asia logistics hub has weakened. That is the reason why we need to pay attention to rail transportation, an alternative competitive structure. In accordance with this background, this study focuses on analyzing economic feasibility comparing transportation routes to Europe using Trans-Korea Railway and Trans-Siberia Railway. Factors of analysis are transportation distance, period, cost and additional cost As the result, considering economic feasibility, TKR-TSR route(Route1) is the best transportation approach for six routes. Therefore, using TKR-TSR railway will be the best way to increase nation's competitiveness, in response to Russia government's far-east development strategy.

The purpose of this paper is to estimate the social costs induced by various transport modes such as truck, rail and sea vessel. For this purpose, we introduce the damage function of each transport modes, and estimate social costs for 10 items using Meta Analysis. As a results, this study can find that shipping is the most efficient transport mode because it gives the lowest social costs among them. This study also find that the iso-cost transport distance that gives the equal social costs between the transport modes. Our methodology can be thought somewhat inferior to the Contingent Valuation Methods, however the advantage of this methodology is that we can decomposite the total social costs into item by item and can apply it to other researches.

전력계통의 증대에 따라 변전소용 변압기도 대용량화되어 가고 있다. 변전소용 대용량 변압기의 경우 최대문제가 되는 것은 철도운송의 경우 운송한계에 있다. 일본의 철도는 협궤이기 때문에 운송능력이 작고 275KV 변압기의 경우 조립운송할 수 있는 한계용량은 종래 300MVA라고 되어 왔지만, 최근 기술의 진보와 신뢰성 향상 시책에 따라 450MVA까지도 철도운송을 하는 것이 가능케 되었다. 이와같은 사정때문에 당사는 이번에 중부 전력.북풍전변전소에 3상 60Hz, 275/15 4/31.5KV, 450/450/135MVA 변압기를 납품하였다. 본기는 초고압 변전소용으로는 일본에서 최대급의 것으로 여러가지의 특징을 가지고 있다. 그 주요점을 들면, (1) 철도에 의한 조립운송을 가능케 했다. 더우기 부하시 TAP 절환기를 본체 TANK에 조립해서 운통한다. (2) 일차 초고압 권선에는 선로단을 중앙에 배치한 HISERCAP 권선을 채용한다. (3) 당초 65Phon, 장래 55Phon의 저소음사양을 만족시키기 위해서 고효율의 송유풍냉식 저소음방열관을 사용했다. (4) 기기의 신뢰성을 높이기 위해 설계, 제조, 시험 검사 각면에 만전을 기했다. 그러나 그외에도 여러가지 연구가 추진되고 있으며 다음에 개요를 설명하고져 한다.

Rail-road intermodal freight transport is a transoortation system that rail and road transport are utilized between origins and destinations. The roles of road(truck) in rail-road intermodal freight transport are pick-up and delivery that are keys parts of total transportation process. The objective of this study is to develop and evaluate the pick-up and delivery strategies for container trucks in order to increase their productivity. Two different strategies are developed : One is aimed for minimizing the total traveling distance of container and the other is to reduce the waiting time at client site. The comparative studies are performed on the actual network of Paris metropolitan. The simulation analysis shows that the proposed strategies are quite efficient in various performance measures.

The present study analyzed the railway transport characteristics of bulk cargo flowing in and out of trade ports in South Korea. Bulk cargo transport in freight stations located behind trade ports was examined using actual flow data, and new implications were drawn accordingly. The results showed that bulk cargo volume in freight stations located behind trade ports is gradually decreasing, and it is also failing to secure a competitive edge against road transport. This downfall can be mainly attributed to the decrease in competitiveness of railway transport as well as the emergence of new trade ports that do not have lead-in track for port. Therefore, greater effort is required to strengthen the connection between new trade ports and railway freight stations.
