Abstract

With the further improvement of our infrastructure, China's railway freight is facing new challenges with variety modes of goods transportation. China's railway freight mode was developed during the planned economy period, whose key idea was the railway freight transportation planning. Such freight transport mode is far away from the current market demand. In this paper, by using the theory and technology of e-commerce, a kind of railway freight model was designed for the e-commerce environment. By analyzing the traditional railway freight process, three key steps of the railway freight vehicle operation were studied,and a new process for railway freight operation under the e-commerce mode was provided.
