Figure 4 Operation diagram when the passenger/freight ratio is 1:1. Figures ​Figures33 and ​and44 show that, in the situation

of mixed departure, all the trains do not have to stop in the second intermediate station, the reason for which is that the departure time EGFR targets interval is long enough, the freight train has entered the second section in this time interval, and it is impossible for the following passenger trains to catch up in the first section; in the second section, the passenger trains will catch up with the freight trains and then follow the latter until the third station, where the freight trains will stop to allow the passenger trains overtaking; then, the freight trains will move on. Figure 5 is the space comparison chart between the passenger and freight trains, in which the front one is the freight train and the following one is the passenger train. It can be seen from Figure 5 that, after departure, the freight train will travel at the maximum speed; when it reaches the 10000 cells, the passenger train departed; when the passenger train reaches 30000 cells, its speed fluctuates continuously

and tends to decelerate, while the speed of the freight train remains unchanged, indicating the state of steadily car-following; when close to 40000 cells, the speed of the freight train continues to reduce and finally becomes zero at 40000 cells, indicating that the freight train stops at the third station; while the passenger train is passing the third station, the speed drops to the minimum of 10 cells/s and then continues to accelerate to its maximum speed of 35 cells/s; and when it travels to 65000 cells, the speed of the passenger train

will have two fluctuations and will reduce to 0, which is because of the maintenance period of the station. Figure 5 Space comparison chart between the passenger and freight trains. Figure 6 is the time-speed comparison chart between the passenger and freight trains. We can see from the figure that the first passenger train departed at 84s from the departure station, and it will be pulled out of the system after about 470s (actual 2350s) with its maximum speed. A freight train departed Dacomitinib at 160s from the departure station, after about 335s; the train will stop for short term to let the following passenger train go first, and then it will start running after about 320s until it exits the system. Figure 6 Time-speed comparison chart between the passenger and freight trains. 4. Conclusions In this paper, we proposed the cellular automata model for four-show fixed block system and simulated the train operation states considering the multi-intermediate stations as well as line maintenance period. Simulation results show that, in specific simulation environment, for different proportions of the train, the passing ability almost remains unchanged, which is because of the intermediate stations providing conditions for avoiding and parking and shortening delays.
