Railway transportation is common, preferable and cheapest mode of transport across world. Suburban or metro train plays major role in public transport system in almost all metro cities worldwide. Sustainable passenger railway system can be means of checking the growth of the automobile in cities. Railways are growing in by increasing their capacity. But passenger demand prevails over supply capacity. Outburst of passenger in and around railway station premises is common phenomenon especially during peak hours. Railways are keen in improving the comfort, safety and security of passengers using rail transports. This paper is aimed to map available literature on passenger flow in railway transportation.

Abstract


Railway transportation is common, preferable and cheapest mode of transport across world. Suburban or metro train plays major role in public transport system in almost all metro cities worldwide. Sustainable passenger railway system can be means of checking the growth of the automobile in cities. Railways are growing in by increasing their capacity. But passenger demand prevails over supply capacity. Outburst of passenger in and around railway station premises is common phenomenon especially during peak hours. Railways are keen in improving the comfort, safety and security of passengers using rail transports. This paper is aimed to map available literature on passenger flow in railway transportation.
