The railway passenger volume is a non-linear, dynamic and complicated issue which is affected by many factors. Using the principle and method of system dynamic, this paper has analyzed the effect factors for railway passenger volume, including the economic factors, rail infrastructure factors and travel choice behavior factor. Considering about the causality among the factors, a dynamic model has been built based on the relevant data from <China Statistical Yearbook (2000-2013)>. At the same time, the model has been run for making predictions (2014-2030). This paper focuses on the influences caused by the fare increase and the increase of GDP growth rate.
