Abstract:In order to improve the market share of container railway in Tianjin Port and bring into play the comparative advantages of railway, this paper, based on the analysis of the "whole process" of container railway and highway transportation in Tianjin Port, mainly considers the price factors that directly affect the railway's advantageous distance, such as the freight rate of highway and railway, and constructs the container loading in Tianjin Port taking "price" as consideration. Based on the research of highway freight rate and the related content of "one-port price" of railway container, the advantageous distance model of container railway collection and distribution is used to calculate the boundary distance of railway with price advantage. Taking customers in Dezhou, Shijiazhuang and Xi'an as examples, the advantageous distance raising strategy of railway introducing special railway line into rear yard of port area is put forward, and the analysis results are compared and verified. The effectiveness of the strategy is proved. Keywords:Tianjin Port; Container;Railway Collection and Distribution;Whole Process; Competitive Distance.
