In the freight kilometrat.e column oi' this forr.. n distinction is made

shows the kilometruge in the territor o the hone bureau and the territory
of the other bureau(s) involved. The ki?.ometrage for through freight and fcr
freight to be unloaded at stations in the territory of the home bureau are
computed separntel.y so as to sho?a the vch;~e o: cork to be performed in the

be ascertained. From these figures, the lalometrage of loaded curs nad empty
cars may be calculated, and the percentage of empty cars may be d^termi::ed.
This is accomplished by calculating the numbers of each type of car to be
moved on each run, in both directions, to determine the difference between the
number of cars, by type, moving in one direction. and the number moving in the
opposite di*ection. This difference will indicate the :;umber of empty cars of
the proper types which need be added to one or the other trait: to equalize car

1. Kilometrnge of Loaded Cars
The form shown in Table y, Planned Falometrage of Loaded Cars, is
used to arrive et figures for the planned I:llometrnge of loaded cars for each
subbureau, and from the summarization of these, for the btu?eau as n wY.ole, by
entering in it the data sunnlied by the ?r.:rious reporting _inits. This infor-
mation should be entered under six categories for esch type of car. 'ihe six
categories are divided into two groups, rs:me'_y, (a) the :alometraue of cars
to be unloaded within the territor;; of the home subbureau; and ('u) the kil.o-
metrage of cars to be unloaded outside the i:ome subbureau. The three cate-
gories in the first group are as follows:
a? Y.ilometrare of cars to be laded and unloaded in the territcr~; of
the same home subbureau. .
b. Kilometragr of cars bided i^ e: ;other subbureau of the home bureau
and unloaded in the home subbureau.
c. Kilometrnge of cars loaded in the territory of another bureau a7d
unloaded in the home bureau.
The three categories in the second group ure as follows:
n. Bilometrage of cars lo:,ded in the home subbureau and unloaded ir,
another subbureau of the same hor.:e bureau.
b. Kilometrnge of cars loaded in .anther subbureau of the home bureau
for transport through the home subbureau for unlcading outside the latter.
c. Kilometrnge of cars loaded in the territory of another bureau for
transport through the home subbrureau for unloading outside the latter.
The loaded-car Fa lometrsge figures thus obtained for various types
of cars by subbureaus and bureaus are needed for the computation of the turna-
round time of freight cars.

example, if loaded cars are dispatched at n switching point having tracks lead-
ing in three or more directions, such as that at Tientsin, the following pro-
cedure takes place:
Feng-t'si to Tang-shin, four loaded boxcars

points on the form shorn in Table 11, Record of Leaded Cers to pass Sxitchin
Stations. The sum of the number of cars of all categories actually switched
at all switching pointn is the total for tY.e whole bureau.
The operation of ascertaining the number of empt;; c^rs switched is
not as simple as in the case of unloaded cars. Not all empty car.: _. sting e

Let the fi3ures in parentheses in the ri~osc di:::^.?nr.~ represent the
number of empty cars. It will be seen that there are seven loaded boxcars go_
ing fiom Feng-t'ai to Tientsin and eight
maintain the same number of cars running in both .d irectionr-nit iccneeessary
for the Feng-t'ni station to disp;titcft one empt;; ter to Tientsin. Thee:; there
are four loaded boxcars ~>ing from Tientsin to T'an~-shan and eight running
in the reverse direction. For the same reason, it is recess:^.ry for the Tient-
sin station to dispatch four empty cars to Tang-shan. 'i'wo loaded boxcars
ar% sent from Tientsin to Te-hsien, but none goes in the reverse direction.
Similarly, it is necessary for Te-hsien to send two empty boxcars to Tientsin.
It x311 be noted that the Tientsin station reret,.es t:?s ee empty boxcars and
dispatches lour empty boxcars and that the lesser of these two numbers is the
number of empty cars actually switched. The same method of calculation should

cars to determine the Average Snitching Dis;?ance.1e Finally~itheiplanned asily
average car }:ilometrage should be divided by the daily average total numbr~ of
loaded and empty gars switched, and the quotient trill correspond with tk;e
planned Average Switching Distance.
5. Switching Time
For use in computations, a standard-unit Switching Time for actual
switching operations (rearrangement of cars) and one for through trair. switch-
ing (nerely change of locomotives) should be adopted, based on past experience
and anticipated improvements. For instance, assumin.~ that at a certrin switch-
ing point there are 50 cars involved in a thrcugh-train switching operation
requiring 2 hou:?s, and 50 cars are involved in a rearrangement-switching ouer-
ation requiring 6 hours, the average SwitchinE Titae for that station is equal
to the sum of 50 x 2 and 50 x 6, divided by the sum of 5o end 5'~, which is
1~ hours. If, for instance, as a result of technical improvements, the snitch-
ing time for through trains should be reduced to 1.3 hours and that far re-
arrungement of trains to 5.G hours, the new st::ndard-gait areragc Snitching
Time for that station would be the sum of 50 x l.3 and 50 x 5.6, divided by
the sum of 50 and 5 7, uhich is j ,? ,yours . The average Switchi.*., Ti^e for
bureau is the total aggregate Switching Time for all trai:a and all switching
points in t.,e bureau, divided by the total number o? cars switched.
~ ? Dumber of Cars Loaded, Ilumber U71oe:ded, and Humber Entering or
Leaving n Horder Station
This information may be derived from the form sho:m in Table 1?_, ;;un~_
mart' Form for Planning Use of Cars, after having r_ntcred in it data obtainable
from the forma shown in Tab1c 4 and Table 7 or fron: sections of the reports of
operational plans submitted b;~ the ?nrious stations, and mr.kin^ the pertinent
calculations. It is possible to t;~'t from the form nho~;n 1^ m; ble 1?, for the
home burenu,.the number o; car: dispatched daily (that i^, daily cz:rla:cdin~.;:);
and this will embrace the figures for cer~ tmlo.^.ded and reloaded in ho;-e ter-
ritory and then dispatched to i'orcicn tcrritor??, the doily number o^ loaded
cars received from foreign territory, and the number of '.he latter whidi re
to be unloaded in home territory .:rd tho:.e that ^t?e to ~ c
territory. These figures suppll: the imp^rtaat lector- t}t^L t~ orchui~ ~ 'other
the computation of the onerati.^.g ratio. "ed ?o.
7. Operating Time
The OperatinE Time, as in the case of average ,witching Time, is
based on the data of past experience, amended, if der.;ed advisable, by alluw-
once for anticipated developments or im,n?o?aements. ?
3. Unloading Ratio
Idost of the factors used ,for the r.^.lcu1' tion o-' ca:? Curn~ rrn:rd time
may be used in calculating the turnnrounci time for r.::r:- unloaded within thr
bureau area. It is still necessary to :acertain the ti:;loadinr~ Eatio. ~i!e Un-
loading Ratio is the ratio represented by a lr^ot+.on, vhere the numerator is
the number of cars of home origin to be unloaded in ho:ce territory n1u^, the
total number of cars to he unloaded in ho-e territor}-, :?.::d tihe der.otairator is
the sum of the number of cars to be loaded and the number of co r:: to be un-
loaded in the }lone territory. The data reru i ed for this r:o.lcuintioa, namely,

9? Hilometrage of Empty Cars
To compute the proportion of the number of empty cars cvailable for
use to the total number of cars in use, it is necessary to know the turnaround
'distance of empty curs. To get the latter figure, the tot^ 1 Y.ilometrage of
loaded 'cars must oc multiplied by the empty-car kilometrage ratio.
Having ascertained the figures for these various factors, Hamel ?, the
kilometrage of loaded cars and of unloaded cars, the empty-car kilometrag,;
ratio, the travel speed, average switching distance, average switching time,
operating ratio, operating time, and unloading ratio, it is now passible to
calculette the turnaround time for freight cars, the turnaround time for cars
unloaded, and the proportion. of empty cars expected to be availr:ble for load-
ing.
Car Distribution by Categories ?
The planned monthly car distribution by categories for each subb:u?eau and
bureau is to be found on the form shown in Table 1;, Car Distributio^ and In-
'~? coming and Outgoing Car Plans. This shows the following items.
1. Cars in u^e --
This is equal to the Daily 4tor1: Load (D':L), ~multinlied
by the turnaround time.
2. Cars assigned to special duties and those commnndcered -- The number
of these cars is set by higher authority, and hnvin~ been entered in the
plans, it must net be altered without due procedure.
3? Car repaire -- Each month, the bureau determines the number of cars
to be scheduled for repairs. This number men, be based on the number repaired
in the preceding month. However, it is more rational and accurate to base
the plans on the standard practice for ..^.cheduling inspections ~nnd repairs.
}+? Cars in Reserve -- The number of cars in reserve is the number remain-
ing after deducting from the total number of cars which the btu?eau has ~ns-
signed to i_] all-the cars of the following cnte;o_ies, namely, cars in use
for ordinary traffic purposes, care not en;;a?ed in ordinary traffYc, r.nd cars
under repair. The cars in reserve should not be nut in use unless the volume
of traffic to be handed exceeds the cnpncity of the ru?s is rerLlar use?
5? Incoming and Outgoing Cars -- n^ ttte forr,: shcwn in Table 14, Planned
Car Movements by Border Stations, there should be entered, one by one, asp^-
rately for each type of car, a record o? each incerdng r_nd out~o;ng cur th::t
passes a border station of a subbureuu or bure::u, as l:he case mrcy be. '1,hen
all pertinent data have been entered and summnri~cd, the form will indicul:e
the tgtal number of cars of each type th^.t enter or l.c::ve the i~order .^,tK.tirnt.^, .
If there is a greater number of any tyre o." car cevin_; in one direction th r.
in the opposite direction, this fora will. show the m:mber e:;d direction of
empty cars of each type that should be forw;:rded to maintain enuelity of flow
in both directions.
:lrraneement of Train Schedules
The number of pairs of trains currentl;> needed on each run having been
ascertained for the following month, the train schedules must be arranged ro-
operativcly by responsible representatives of the traffic nl:nning office end
the mechanical division. When these rrrangcrscrt^ -.re Lcint. r_ade, due rc~;ard
