A notable deficiency in the planning of urban railway lies in the treatment of statistical variation inherent in the day-to-day operation of the system. The method proposed is a mixture of stochastic and diffusion type mathematical approximations to describe the queue length, delay and relaxation times found in the operation of the section.
