Abstract

This article presents railway routes currently used in freight transportation from the eastern border of Poland to western countries. Due to increasing number of transported containers, new alternative routes have been proposed. Then was made a comparison of these routes to determine if the parameters of the proposed routes do not differ significantly from the parameters currently used routes. In order to comprehensively compare the parameters, coefficients have been introduced allowing them to be combined with each other. Parameters that have been included among others the length of route, the number of tracks and the cost of access to the infrastructure. Subsequently calculation the average value of all parameters allow to evaluate the particular route and compare it with the others.
