Abstract: Abstract Transport networks can be defined in terms of links and nodes. In this Chapter we address the issue of the mutual impacts of links on nodes and nodes on links. Most studies on this theme focus only on one of the two relationships. We try to carry out a more integrated approach to modelling transport networks. This will be done in the context of railway systems, where links can be interpreted in terms of railway lines, and nodes in terms of railway stations, or in a broader sense, the cities served by these stations (see Rietveld & Van Nierop, 1995a, 1995b).
