“…The aim of this work is to explore the applicability of modular vehicles (MVs) capable of DC in railway lines. Much research has been conducted in rail transit timetabling, encompassing various issues such as energy consumption (Scheepmaker et al , 2017), resilience (Ren et al , 2019), safety (Shi et al , 2023), rolling stock routing (Wang et al , 2021), rescheduling (Jiateng et al , 2022) and more. However, most of these approaches did not consider DC or MV.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to address the extended travel time caused by dwelling time at stations for passengers on traditional rail transit lines. To mitigate this issue, the authors propose the “Non-stop” design, which involves trains comprised of modular vehicles that can couple and uncouple from each other during operation, thereby eliminating dwelling time at stations.. Design/methodology/approach The main contributions of this paper are threefold: first, to introduce the concept of non-stop rail transit lines, which, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, has not been researched in the literature; second, to develop a framework for the operation schedule of such a line; and third, the author evaluate the potential of its implementation in terms of total passenger travel time. Findings The total travel time was reduced by 6% to 32.91%. The results show that the savings were more significant for long commutes and low train occupancy rates. Research limitations/implications The non-stop system can improve existing lines without the need for the construction of additional facilities, but it requires technological advances for rolling stock. Originality/value To eliminate dwelling time at stations, the authors present the “Non-stop” design, which is based on trains composed of locomotives that couple and uncouple from each other during operation, which to the best of the authors’ knowledge has not been researched in the literature.
