Stages in the development of driving connected trains and trains of increased weight and length

Abstract
It is analyzed the introduction of connected trains, increased mass and length on the railways of the Russian Federation. The possibilities of their operation in some countries are also considered: the USA, South Africa, China, etc.
The practice of driving connected trains and increased mass and length creates opportunities for further growth in freight turnover, increasing the throughput of existing railway sections, allows you to quickly respond to changes in traffic volume without increasing the number of trains or refusals to fulfill orders, which contributes to an increase in the level of customer focus.
The main factors limiting the through movement of long trains and trains of increased mass using the existing rolling stock are the short length of the stations' receiving and departure tracks and the insufficient available capacity of the traction power supply system on certain sections of the railways.
