ESTIMATION OF LABOR PROBABILITY AND READINESS IN THE PERIOD OF NORMAL OPERATION
After construction in the process of operation, the locomotives are maintenanced whether it is planned and unplanned repairing where their operability is restored. Alternating failures and restores create some flows and reconstructions as a kind of streams of random events. The work of the service locomotive depots to ensure the required trouble-free operation and readiness of electric locomotives during their normal operation was assessed. Statistical data were used to determine the values of the availability and reliability factors.
