摘要: This project aims to find means of reducing the cost and thereby the price of tickets and. at the same time, enhance the level of attractiveness so that profitability improves. Calculations reveal that the increased utilisation of space and higher speeds are two of the most important factors when it comes to cutting costs. Attractiveness factors have been quantified into monetary valuations using stated preference methodology. The most important conclusions from SP studies as far as methodology is concerned are that "packages" of comfort and service measures should be evaluated to reduce the risk of over-valuation, that the values estimated from SP co vary strongly with travelling times and ticket prices and that people with higher ticket prices usually have higher valuations in absolute monetary terms. Commuters ascribe a high value to good seating comfort. This finding and the economic advantages to be gained from having a joint train type indicate that it should be beneficial to have one standard train for fast regional and inter-regional services. Double-decker trains or wide-bodied trains with 2-<-3 scats side-by-side are elective ways of reducing cost levels. Attributes that command a high willingness-to-pay include shorter travelling times, low noise and vibration levels, good ventilation (AQ. varied seat configurations with reclining seats and service attributes such as radio/music outlets at seats and free coffee and tea in each coach. The impression of modernity itself also plays an important role in enhancing the level of attractiveness.
