Design Method for Facility Location and Freight Flow Allocation of China Railway Highspeed Express

China Railway Highspeed Express (CRH Express) is in the stage of mode exploration and technological innovation. This paper takes CRH Express as the research object, studies the operation and organization mode of CRH Express in the future CRH Express market, and makes a study on hub location and cargo flow distribution. This article analyzes various current CRH Express modes from multiple dimensions and proposes a “multi station-multi hub-multi mode” high-speed rail express operation mode. Then build a large-scale Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) optimization model to portray the high-speed rail express network. Based on the analysis and refinement of the CRH Express network, the optimization model is built to depict the operational performance of the CRH Express network under various transportation modes by constructing a scenario of the CRH Express hub facility location and cargo flow distribution.
