According to the forecast target indicators values of the JSC “Russian Railways” integrated development project until 2023, it is necessary to increase the East Siberian railway capacity of the mountain-pass section of the Bolshoy Lug – Slyudyanka-II up to 137 pairs of trains per day. The freight trains number should be 107 pairs per day, a raft of pushing locomotives in the odd direction up to 19 units. The section transportation capacity will increase to 116.7 million tons per year. According to the specified operation parameters, with the growth of cargo turnover on the Irkutsk – Slyudyanka section by 2023, the available capacity shortage will be 14 pairs of trains. In freight traffic, if all provided reserve lines of the the regulatory schedule are used, the capacity deficit will be 11 pairs of various categories trains. The article offers a solution of the existing section power supply devices strengthening problem until the inter-train interval of 8 minutes is reached, for this purpose, the technical parameters of the section substations are considered, and the performance indicators that can provide reliable and cost-effective working conditions are determined. The operation conditions of a traction power network (TPN) of the Bolshoy Lug – Slyudyanka-II section under the existing traffic schedule and under the prospective train schedule are compared. Traction calculations have a special role, since they serve as the basis for drawing up optimal train schedules, determining the railway lines capacity, effectively placing separate points, traction substations, fuel depots, determining the locomotives electricity and fuel consumption rate, solving other practical problems. Traction operation calculation of the electrified mountain pass section of the Bolshoy Lug – Slyudyanka-II railway line was performed using the KORTES software package. The power supply parameters of a given section were used as input data: the separate points number and location, the current speed limits for trains on this section, the longitudinal profile of the railway track, the categories and types of trains that pass through the section, the trains weights and the electric rolling stock types used in the calculation.
