The problems that are being talked about here are related to the scientific field of supply chain management. This article focuses on the preferred control algorithm selection for large-scale railway network logistics for the special case. In this particular case, the dispatch and destination stations belong to the various regional rails. The statistical approach is applied here to the choice of the preferred control algorithm for rail cargo logistics. The peculiarity of our approach is the application of standard score z-test modifications for timing characteristics comparison. The results obtained can be used for logistics process optimization and improvement. These findings may be applicable to large-scale railway networks and transportation networks that combine the different modes of transport.
