This article discusses the effectiveness of the implementation of a virtual train coupling on the capacity of railways. The article compares the possible ways of organizing a virtual coupling: the use of radio block centers and the use of a "virtual coupling" in the direct exchange of information between locomotives. Technical problems and technological problems that arise when implementing this technology are considered. In conclusion, the scheme of effective application of virtual coupling technology for solving the problem of increasing the capacity of railway sections is constructed. It is concluded that the task of increasing the capacity requires an integrated approach to the solution, taking into account all the technical and technological features of the road.
