Shunting work on sorting wagons is carried out on steeper profiles and requires the operation of shunting diesel locomotives of a higher power. Many sorting operations use double traction of shunting locomotives in conditions of the highly outdated fleet of shunting diesel locomotives. However, the technology of operating two shunting locomotives requires substantiation of its scope of application. In this article, using the example of station “X”, the technology of disbanding trains from the sorting hump is investigated in two ways: the first is the existing technology (work on disbanding trains is carried out using two shunting locomotives of the TEM-2 series), shunting locomotive of TEM-7 series. It has been determined that in the existing technology, the required processing capacity of the hill approaches its maximum value. When using the TEM-7 diesel locomotive, the maximum processing capacity of the hill increases by 27%. The sphere of efficiency of the TEM-7 series locomotive instead of two TEM-2 was substantiated by the method of technical and economic calculations.

This article presents the measures and necessary recommendations to reduce the load on the stations, making efficient use of the processing capacity of the stations in the conditions of imbalanced wagon-flows. Also, analyzed the factors that influence the loading of railway stations according to their place of geographical location. Proposals have been made to reduce the level of load arising at the technical stations of the railway using the “Ishikawa” diagram.

The development of logistics terminals and their placement on the railway network, which involves their integration into transport and logistics clusters, will significantly reduce logistics costs, thanks to the optimal technology for the movement of goods, and also contributes to active import substitution and the level of growth in the competitiveness of goods and services. Clustering, which is being given great attention by the Government of the country today, will allow solving some issues of territorial balance of production concentration, increasing the share of high-tech industries, avoiding dependence on trade in resources, increasing the added value of goods, increasing economic growth rates. Modern Uzbekistan has huge transport potential and unique opportunities to meet the needs of the country in the movement of both goods and passengers in all directions by all possible modes of transport through the use of available transit resources. The article analyzes the sectoral structure of the industry of Uzbekistan, shows the existing clusters of the agricultural sector of the republic. The methods of assessing the level of cluster development in the context of the regions of Uzbekistan are described. Paired correlation analysis was used to determine the presence and type of relationship between the studied factors. As a result, the regions of Uzbekistan in terms of the placement of freight infrastructure on railways in order to create potential transport and logistic clusters were grouped depending on the indicators of socio-economic and infrastructural development.
