The major factors of competition affecting the passenger traffic volumes were pointed out to achieve this purpose.<strong> </strong><strong>Findings. </strong>There are 3 chief players in the market of passenger transport services in the long-distance: road, railway and air transport. Moreover, the competition between them is escalating. That is why there was a need for determination of railway transportation attractiveness. For this purpose the following factors of the competition were separated: price policy of a carrier; vehicle motion speed; term and rhythm of a trip; transportation quality. Each of these indicators is considered separately. As a result it gave the opportunity to construct an integrated indicator of passenger traffic attractiveness.<strong> Originality. </strong>The offered methodical approach to determine the passenger traffic attractiveness gives the opportunity to estimate it; as well it also considers the high-speed movement introduction in Ukraine.<strong> </strong><strong>Practical value. </strong>The offered technique will give the opportunity to determine volumes of transportations more precisely. It is necessary for definition of quantity of a rolling stock for prospect.</p>}, number={2(50)}, journal={Science and Transport Progress }, author={Bozhok, N.
