Abstract
The model of assignment problem and the model of minimum rate with maximum flow are principal models for optimizing locomotive working diagrams, however, deficiency occurs when they come to partially double traction. The paper presents a linear integer programming model to solve problems in optimizing locomotive working projects, under paired or unpaired train diagram, single traction, and fully or partially double traction. To predigest solving process and promote practicability, the model is firstly simplified to the model of minimum rate circulation flow and then to the model of minimum rate set flow.
