It is known that one of the main factors reducing the shortage of shunting locomotives at railway stations and leading to a reduction in their employment time due to increased labor productivity is the state of equipment of the railway station infrastructure with SCB devices. This article presents a way to attract low-mobility shunting locomotives by reducing the duration of employment of shunting locomotives allocated for the daily amount of work performed at the station when equipping them with devices by changing the infrastructure of an electric decentralized railway station. A comparative analysis of the time spent by the shunting locomotive in motion during the day when performing each technological operation for the maintenance of cargo facilities, as well as the amount of time spent on additional actions, is carried out.
