About the product

While there is recognition within most of the Asian and Pacific region's railway organizations, of the importance of measuring the costs of operating, few currently have access to the costing systems or models which produce satisfactory results and are, at the same time, easy to apply and update. The model described in this software manual offers an alternative to the use of base cost data from established railway accounting systems. It offers the use of reliable cost indicators such as wages, other operating personnel costs and fuel consumption rates. Railway financial staff and those involved capital planning and resource acquisition as well as academic researchers, will find that this publication suits their needs.
