At present, carriers are focused on improving profitability and efficiency of transportation, reducing freight costs, and providing high quality customer service when their operation work is planned. This is why the question of the time it takes to deliver goods to the destination stations is highly relevant. The authors introduced the concept of forecast time of cargo delivery . The progress of cargo flow along transport routes is modeled; parameters affecting the forecast time of cargo delivery are determined; a method for determining the forecast time of cargo arrival at the unloading station (transshipment) is developed. The method is based on determining the time that the flow occupies the facilities along transport routes based on their loads.
