Abstract: Abstract The facilities of railway transport are operated in various environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, wind, pressure, amount of precipitation, snow, floods, etc.), under various operating conditions (track layout, track class, set speed, etc.) and in accordance with different management approaches. They are operated at different utilization rate. The facilities of the same functionality may have significant design differences. All these circumstances mean that facilities of the same functionality can fail with different frequency (intensity). Moreover, differences in failure rate can significantly vary depending on operating conditions. It follows that the dependability of a facility could not be evaluated by the total number of its failures at various sections of the railway network.
