Abstract

Carrying large pieces of baggage makes rail travel more difficult for many passengers. A self-service bag drop similar to that at the airport could improve the attractiveness of high-speed rail and encourage more people to travel by train. We use microscopic simulations of a generic train station to answer the question of how many kiosks are necessary to ensure shortest possible waiting times.
