Abstract
Background. In the economic justification of railway construction projects, the most important task is always to calculate the operating costs of the future railway, which allows to assess the effectiveness of the project investments. There are approved methods for calculating the operating costs of new roads, but there are no such methods for high-speed railways, which explains the relevance of this study.
Aim. Development of a methodological approach for calculating the operating costs of a high-speed railway project in the absence of an operating standard.
Materials and methods. The data of measurements of the influence of technical solutions (applied control systems, equipment, maintenance technology, etc.) and conditions of operation of the VSM on the cost items are used. The results of the analysis of statistical data on the amount of costs on the operated sections of high-speed traffic are applied.
Results. The algorithm for calculating the operating costs on the VSM-1 (Moscow-Saint Petersburg) by the farms of the railway is substantiated.
