The next part of this work is focused on gather data specific rail route from transport provider. The simulation model was constructed by obtained data. Then the model was able to simulate particular situations of railway delays on the specific rail route. Then follows the assessment of the simulations and the display of sunk costs in these simulations. The sunk costs were also diverted on money. The last part is about a suggestion on how the simulation model could be applied to help the passengers to plan their travel time
