Research on the Feasibility of Express Freight Transport on High-Speed Railway in China

The paper investigates the developing progress of express freight transport on high-speed railway at home and abroad. It is found that there are many successful cases for high-speed express freight transport products in foreign countries, suggesting the feasibility to carry out relevant services in China. Lack of advanced technology and effective operation management, the process of express freight transport on high-speed railway in China is postponed. After freight market demand analysis, the paper emphasizes on the infrastructures and running modes to analyze technical feasibility and on transport costs, efficiency and timeliness to analyze economic feasibility, ending with the conclusion that it is feasible for China to carry out express freight transport on high-speed railway, combined with some construction recommendations.

Operation Cost

In order to reduce operation cost and improve transport capacity of China high-speed railway, train dynamic marshalling often need to be implemented between different kinds of China’s high-speed Electric Multiple Units (EMUs). Based on the operation situation of China high-speed railway, this paper analyzes the market demand and feasibility of dynamic marshalling between different kinds of EMUs, and describes the principle how to realize it by using TCN and UIC network communication technology. Some key problems which need to be solved in the process of realizing coupled control between different kinds of EMUs are pointed out, and corresponding suggestions how to solve these problems are proposed as well. Moreover, according to the technical development trend of the EMU, this paper predicts the possibility of using network communication technology based on real-time Ethernet to realize EMU marshalling and coupled control.

First Time

High-speed railway (HSR) express freight train service sites selection is critical to the development of China’s Third Party Logistics market. In this paper, we formulate an improved entropy-cloud model based approach to solve the HSR express sites selection problem for the first time. The basic data of the indicators, for example, existing railway network conditions, traffic environment, express freight market demand, and policy, will be used as the inputs. We apply improved entropy method to obtain each subindicator’s weight. The cloud model will be used to select and classify each station under evaluation.
