Research on Location of Railway Freight Station with Milk-run Business of Automobile Parts under Combined Transport of Highways and Railways
Whether the railway freight station with the Milk-run business of automobile parts under the combined transport of highways and railways can be accurately and scientifically selected will directly affect the total logistics cost.As the advantages of the combined transport of highways and railways in reducing costs and increasing efficiency gradually emerge,some automobile manufacturers have also begun to explore how to apply this mode of transport in Milk-run business in the parts logistics field.According to the previous study,this paper analyzed the background of using the combined transport of highways and railways in the Milk-run business of automobile parts.With the Milk-run business of Chongqing Changan Ford Automobile Co.,Ltd.in East China as an example,this paper established the Milk-run logistics operation mode based on the combined transport of highways and railways and found that the location of the railway freight station in the Milk-run business needed to be determined during operation.In order to select the site accurately and reasonably,the paper combined quantitative and qualitative methods and used the precise center of gravity method to calculate the range of alternative locations of the railway freight station.Then,it used the comprehensive index rating method to determine the final location.Finally,the location was optimized to improve the operational efficiency of logistics in the Milk-run business of enterprises.
