AB  - The distribution of passengers waiting for a train is one of the limiting factors when improving the performance of a train station, as it heavily influences the boarding and alighting times of trains. We introduce a probability-based model for the pedestrians' choice of a waiting position. Different factors as the geometry and the positions of other waiting pedestrians are taken into account. To assess the model, simulations on a simplified representation of a platform were used. The results of this simulation show good agreement with observations of previously conducted field studies.
