Abstract
By analyzing the components influencing the economic benefit of railway passenger train plans, this paper presents a comprehensive calculation method, by which the income, cost, economic benefit and break-even attendance rate of the passenger train plans can be conveniently calculated. In the end, we illustrate with an example to prove that this method used in the economic evaluation of passenger train plans is practical and feasible. It assists the decision-making process for the development of commercialization of railway passenger transportation.
