The crew scheduling problem (CSP) involves assigning crew to trains, while satisfying a variety of Federal Railway Administration (FRA) regulations and trade-union work rules. Train crew work together to move a train from its origin to its destination. As the train travels over its route, it goes through numerous crew districts. In each crew district, the train is manned by an engineer and a conductor who are qualified to operate the train within that district. The objectives of crew scheduling are therefore to assign crew to the trains, while minimizing the cost of operating trains, improving crew quality of life, and satisfying all FRA regulations and work rules.
