Passenger distribution on a route, range intersection

Hi all,

 

I have a table with train tickets like this:

 

ticketIddepartureNamedepartureDistancearrivalNamearrivalDistance
556822Paris0Rome1400
558874Paris0Lion700
855462Lion500Milan900
547798Milan900Rome1400
900015Lion500Milan900
125569Paris0Milan900

 

The route is one directional (for simplicity) and the station distances are related to route's start (here Paris).

I need to compute a table that shows how many passenger are on each segment:

segmentStartsegmentEndpassengers
ParisLion3
LionMilan4
MilanRome2

 

With SQL Server I generated all the possible segments for a route and then I counted tickets besed on ticket and segment range intersection.

 

Can I do this with DAX or just import the View (which might get quite large for Dual or Import mode)?

Off the cuff, this seems like it has an element of Transitive Closure. https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Quick-Measures-Gallery/Transitive-Closure/m-p/783828#M388
