Since the KTX start its service on April 1st of 2004, KTX increased its share up to 17.4% (2008). It's the 2nd after the passenger car share of 59.2% in the national transportation, but the gap is still wide. In addition, because of the rise of goods' and oil price, the share of intercity express bus is growing up. Nevertheless Korail is trying to improve the train schedule and develop internodal transit system, the number of passengers of KTX is remain flat. KORAIL should start and proceed the tasks below. - Analysis of the 5 year's operation of KTX since the year of 2004 to make plans for the steady growth - development of the KTX operation plan for expansion of railway - preparing the operation of additional passenger rail services on the mail line for newly introduced trains. - expansion of KTX's service area after the introduction of KTX-II - introduction of other new trains - examination for the action plans to promote marketing in main-line including refinement of the rate structure

This research presents a novel application of static traffic assignment methods, but with a variable time value, for estimating the market share of a high-speed rail (HSR) in the NW-SE corridor of Korea which is currently served by the airline (AR), conventional rail (CR), and highway (HWY) modes. The proposed model employs the time-space network structure to capture the interrelations among all competing transportation modes, and to reflect their supply- and demand-sides constraints as well as interactions through properly formulated link-node structures. The embedded cost function for each network link offers the flexibility for incorporating all associated factors, such as travel time and fare, in the model computation, and enables the use of a distribution rather than a constant to represent the time-value variation among all transportation mode users. To realistically capture the tripmakers' value-of-time (VOT) along the target area, a novel method for VOT calibration has been developed with aggregate demand information and key system performance data from the target area. Under the assumption that intercity tripmakers often have nearly "perfect" travel information, one can solve the market share of each mode after operations of HSR for each O-D pair under the time-dependent demand with state-of-the-art traffic assignment. Aside from estimating new market share, this paper also investigated the impacts of HSR on other existing transportation modes.

Since the 1990's the fleet of the Dutch Railways showed a dramatic decrease in wheel tyre life. This lifetime reduction led to an unacceptable increase in life cycle costs. Therefore Lloyd's Register Rail has proposed to NedTrain to investigate the possibilities of improving the wheel tyre life. Three improvements were determined as most promising and relatively easy to achieve: - Profile optimisation for Rolling Contact Fatigue (RCF) reduction - a new wheel profile has been developed with a better resistance against rolling contact fatigue of the wheel tread. The profile has been implemented on single deck intercity trains and shows an increase in wheel tyre life of 30%. - Selection of improved wheel tyre materials - combining information from literature and experiences of manufacturers five alternative wheel tyre materials have been selected and are now being tested in practice. - Optimisation of the maintenance strategy - an alternative, preventative maintenance regime has been developed. With this Scraping regime, during short term maintenance every wheel is reprofiled. Higher mileages are reached and savings on life cycle costs up to 50% and more have been achieved. Unplanned maintenance goes down with $30{\sim}60%$. The results from field tests, using a reference group for comparison, and preliminary results after implementation show that the increase in wheel tyre life that is achieved with this project is significant. The results will continue to be monitored using the asset management tool 'Wheel Watch', that was specially developed for this project and is also described in this paper.

LRT (Light Rail Transit) is one of the transport modes to reduce heavy traffic in big cities and intercity. LRT line is considered to be easily linked with other transport system. The importance of new LRT lines has recently emerged as the problems solution in Korea. Thus, in this study, the turnout for AGT (Automated Guideway Transit) by computer system has been developed. And Guideway for AGT has also been developed for installation on the LRT line as well. In future, if the results of the feasibility study show the new LRT line project is viable, Kangwon Railtech shall propose design for LRT turnout, development, standardized design for guideway, and construction scheme

Tilting trains are now an established feature of railway operations throughout the world. For intercity traffic, tilt provides operators with increasing speeds, and therefore enhanced competitiveness, on existing routes where insufficient traffic or a lack of funds precludes the construction of a dedicated new high-speed railway. Appling the tilting train, we can expect 30% of speed up on existing lines, but the stability of the electric current would be low because of tilting the train. Also, the spark between the catenary and pantagraph cause environmental problems such as noise, radio wave malfunction. Therefore, the tilting on pantagraph for the power suppling device is very essential for stable electric power supply.

A great deal of development has been made in the field of railroad control in Korea. Like the recent High speed railroad (KTX) and the intercity light rail train (LRT) are being vigorously promoted. Therefore, in concert with the new railroad development projects, improved train control technics are being applied. Along with the focus on these newly developed advanced technologies the need for a reliable safety system for the safety of the passengers and railroad control personnel alike is being intensified. New safety facilities are continuously being developed in order to safely introduce and develop these new technologies. There is an urgent need for research and development of safety facilities for the implementation of the presently developed facilities as well as for the presently being used. Therefore, this research will study the safe operation of Korean railroad and the implementation situation of the class, functionality, ensured safety range etc. of the safety facilities for users and operators. In studying the material of the kinds of implemented safety facilities and technologies being used abroad we have researched into the most suitable direction of development of safety facilities for the Korean railroad environment.

최근 정부는 교통약자의 이동권 보장 및 증진을 위한 다양한 정책들을 시행하고 있다. 하지만 광역 대중교통 관점에서 바라본 교통약자의 이동권은 아직 미흡한 상황이다. 현재 대부분의 신도시 지역은 도시철도 노선이 부족하고, 고상 버스 중심의 광역교통망 확충이 이루어지고 있으며, 휠체어 이용자의 지역 간 이동을 위한 버스는 현재 2층 저상 좌석버스가 유일하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 저상 좌석버스 도입에 대한 사업의 필요성과 당위성 제시를 목표로 이용자의 지불의사금액을 조건부가치측정법을 통해 추정하였다. 지불의사 유도방법에는 개방형과 양분선택형 질문방식을 채택하였다. 지불의사금액 추정을 위해 이항로짓모형을 활용하였으며, 그 결과 일반인은 126.7원, 교통약자는 117.5원을 추가 지불할 의사가 있는 것으로 분석되었고, 이를 연간 경제적 편익으로 환산 시 약 350억원으로 산출되었다.

2004년 4월에 개통한 고속철도는 철도수송시장 뿐만 아니라 지역간 교통수단의 변화 등 국가 전체적으로 적지않은 변화를 나타내고 있다. 본 연구에서는 예측수요와 실제치간의 차이를 파악하고, 실제 이용치에 대한 경부축 중심의 지역간 교통수단분담률과, 경부축 주요 구간(경부축 주요 4개 구간 대상: 서울권~천안권, 대전권, 대구권, 부산권)의 철도역간 수송수요를 중심으로 하여 지역간 교통수단 및 철도차종별 수용의 변화를 살펴보고자 한다. 경부축의 지역간 교통수단의 분담률 변화는 고속철도 개통전과 개통후의 지역간 이용수요를 분석하여 비교하고, 다음으로 KTX 개통 이후 철도시장내에서의 열차 차종별 분담률을 비교함으로써 차종별 열차 선호도와 이용수용의 분담률을 분석하고자 한다. 결과적으로 지역간 여객수송에서 철도의 역할이 크게 증대되었으며, 향후에도 지속적으로 그 영향력은 커질 것으로 전망된다. 또한 지역간 여객수송에서 항공이 독점하고 있던 장거리 고급수단으로서의 이미지가 철도로 확대되고, 도로부분은 지역간 단거리 여객수송 시장에서 입지가 좁아지고 있다는 사실이다. 수송효율적인 철도수소의 증대는 전체 교통시장의 관점에서도 바람직한 현상이며, 점진적으로 고급수단인 KTX와 새마을호 및 무궁화호를 통합한 일반철도 이원화체계가 운영자 입장이나 이용자 입장에서 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.
