Abstract

The article contains a method for distributing containers on the yard while unloading a container train. The method assumes a definition of the sequence of operations and their adjustment to the time of the container stay on the yard. As compared to the traditional approach to the issue, the proposed method allows for saving the load service time and further savings connected with the machine service cost.
