The article analyses passenger traffic distribution between air transport on domestic air routes and railway transport on the routes of large distances within the Russian Federation. The research objective is to define the air traffic increase potential especially on the distances up to 2500 km. City-pairs air passenger traffic and railway passenger traffic between the destination points statistics for 2014 and 2016, distances between the points of destination and actual economy class air fares and railway compartment carriage tariffs as well data on airports state in corresponding points of destination are used as original information.Pivot tables of traffic on 5 thousand routes by both modes of transport are drawn up.Specific traffic shares by air transport between points of origin (taking off) and destination (landing) are defined. Passenger traffic distribution is evaluated by distance intervals in Russian Federation as a whole and from major airports : Moscow, Ekaterinburg, Sochi and Simferopol. The analysis defines the trend of traffic share increase by air transport along with rising traffic distances. The research reveals that 94,2% of passenger traffic by rail and 83% of traffic by air are carried for the distances up to 2 500 km. The statistics example of passenger traffic from Moscow and Ekaterinburg demonstrates that regional routes with distances up to 1000 km are the main increase potential for the traffic growth. In 2016 traffic share by air transport for the distances interval up to 1000 km was 16%.According to the tariffs analysis the conclusion is made that air fares exceed rail tariffs on flight distances up to 1000 km (because of the short distances flight speculiarities) and on the routes to hard-to-reach and remote areas. Passengers choice in favor of air transport on regional routes depends on creation of economic conditions to attract more passengers.

The volumes of freight and passenger traffic on the railways of the Russian Federation are increasing every year. Along with the increase in the transportation work, the likelihood of occurrence of undesirable incidents in railway transport increases. The assessment of the level of comprehensive (integrated) safety is an important scientific and technical problem in the current conditions of the functioning of railway transport. The methods used to assess the level of safety do not always meet the requirements of complexity in view of comparison of various-scale violations of traffic safety (crash, accident, faulty operation). The paper proposes a mathematical method for assessing the level of integrated safety in railway transport and calculation of the safety index of train traffic. For the calculation, statistical data for a certain period are used. These data summarized in a specialized dictionary of traffic safety violations, the mathematical treatment of which provides information on the level of integrated safety in railway transport in the Russian Federation. The proposed index allows determining the effectiveness of management decisions in the field of train traffic safety, as well as assessing the effectiveness of implementing certain innovations in the field of traffic safety. It is possible to use data on integrated traffic safety to reduce insurance premiums for cargo insurance on railways.

In this article, the authors consider the main problems of the transport complex of Russia, which do not allow the country to fully realize its competitive advantages, prevent the realization of the export potential of the country, the increase in trade and passenger traffic both within the country and with foreign partners. To solve these problems, the authors propose to pay special attention to the development of transport infrastructure as an important component of the transport complex of the Russian Federation.

The questions of qualification and investigation of theft of goods from the rolling stock are revealed. The main factors causing qualification of such crimes under articles 158, 159 and 160 of the Criminal code of the Russian Federation are investigated. The obligatory signs of crimes, such as time, place, means of commission of crime, the size of the stolen property are revealed. Reasonable conclusions are made that the qualification of theft of goods from the rolling stock of railway transport, as well as the definition of the circle of persons potentially involved in the commission of the crime, is largely influenced by the place and time of the crime, the circumstances (type of car, other features), the amount of stolen property, means of committing the crime. The analysis of the practice of qualification of thefts from the rolling stock of railway transport shows that in various investigative situations it is necessary to speak about its private varieties that will allow to qualify a crime more precisely and to organize the process of proving more effectively. It is concluded that for the most complete qualification of crimes related to the theft of cargo from rolling stock cars a thorough analysis of the circumstances that influenced the initiation of a criminal case, as well as investigative situations, is of particular relevance. Proposals were made to improve the norms of the criminal law.

Recently, the incidence of civilian aircraft crashes has increased. These disasters lead to many casualties. Around the world, safetyis apriority in regulating air transport. But flight safety is closely related to pilotfatigue. In this regard, the pilot load standards must be clearly verified. The aim of the article is to analyze the possibility of increasing the sanitary norms of the flight load and at the same timereducing the annual leave for the crew members of civil aviation personnel inRussia. The methods used are both empirical (analysis andsynthesis, induction and deduction, systematization), and theoretical. Each airline must develop an effective risk management system based on thosedeveloped abroad. This system should include control over the rest of the pilots, ensure uninterrupted vacation for at least three weeks, take into account the qualityof the inter-shift rest of the pilots, fly in unusual situations.

This article was prepared on the basis of a speech at the Gaidar Forum on January 16, 2020. It discusses the implementation of the Comprehensive plan for the modernization and expansion of the main infrastructure (CPMI). It has become a national project, distributed throughout the country, its results should be felt by the whole society. The author evaluates the successfully implemented projects for the development of the Central transport hub – the creation of the Moscow Central Ring and the Moscow Central Diameters. It is also about the revival of the Northern Sea Route, the development of the Baikal-Amur Mainline and the Trans-Siberian Railway. These tasks were set in the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of May 7, 2018 № 204 «On national goals and strategic objectives of the development of the Russian Federation for the period until 2024». The infrastructure upgrade will also affect long-distance passenger traffic, rolling stock. The author considers the conclusion of a contract with the Tver Carriage Works as an example of the modernization that has begun, notes that it provides for the renewal of the Tver Carriage Works itself. The author pays special attention to monitoring the implementation of the Comprehensive Plan for the modernization and expansion of the main infrastructure. It is indicated that when spending significant financial resources, it is extremely important to use modern control technologies, including BIM technologies. In addition, it is necessary to conduct work openly so that citizens can see in real time how national projects are being implemented.
