This paper identifies large-scale offloading stations and analyzes the process of emptying cars with breakdown by rolling-stock composition and by owners; it also tracks changes in the number of empty cars with breakdown by owners at dedicated stations and at destination stations. The research identifies the primary groups of cars that can be routed for exit. Thus, it produces criteria for optimizing the routing of empty cars and improving the operating performance for OAO RZD.
