In the public-railway intermodal transportation, railroad transportation has the advantages of large capacity, all-weather, etc. Especially in the mode of railroad coaching freight liner, it has the advantages of fixed point, fixed line, fixed number of train trips, fixed time, and multiple advantages of pricing.

At present, China's multimodal transportation volume accounted for the proportion of the total social freight volume increased by 1 percentage point, can reduce the total cost of social logistics about 0.9 percentage points, cost savings of about 100 billion yuan.

“The medicine will definitely be delivered today!” Logistics agency responsible for Wei Min now reply to the Guilin medicine point to call the bottom of the phone, from the Guangxi highway to railroad “next morning reach” fast liner. Wei Min's company is responsible for pharmaceutical logistics agency, transportation timeliness. Previously from Nanning to Guilin transportation options for road transportation, subject to weather, road conditions and other variables, have to “watch the sky to eat”. Now, Nanning to Guilin trunk line “public to iron”, auxiliary two ends of the highway “door to door” distribution, public-rail intermodal transportation to ensure that the time limit, but also for the enterprise to save nearly 20% of the logistics costs.

The so-called “next morning reach” fast shuttle train is the same day departure, the next morning to arrive at the “night and day to day” freight train, with fixed-point driving, on-time arrival, low cargo damage rate and other transportation advantages. 2023 the end of March, Nanning Bureau of the State Railway in accordance with the construction of a modern logistics system work deployment, regularization and regularization of the logistics system, and the construction of a modern logistics system. At the end of March 2023, Nanning Bureau of State Railway, in accordance with the deployment of building a modern logistics system, regularized the “Nanning-Guilin” round-trip “next-morning-delivery” express liner, and implemented the “railroads as the trunk line + logistics as the whole journey” organization mode. “At the same time, the company has launched services such as optimizing and adjusting the model of trains, chartered train transportation, and delaying the start time of the shuttle train to help enterprises reduce logistics costs. As of May 10, the “next morning reach” fast shuttle train transported a total of 2014 cars, 68,000 tons of goods.

In the public-rail intermodal transport, railroad transport has a large capacity, all-weather and other advantages, especially in the mode of railroad coaching freight train, with a fixed point, fixed line, fixed frequency, timing, pricing multiple advantages, both green and low-carbon, but also efficient and effective; highway in short distances, urban areas have the mobility and flexibility, and the characteristics of the wide coverage. The two hand in hand linkage, from competition to integration, on the transportation enterprises, production enterprises is a win-win move.

Data show that at present, China's multimodal transportation volume accounted for the proportion of social freight transport volume increased by 1 percentage point, can reduce the total cost of social logistics of about 0.9 percentage points, cost savings of about 100 billion yuan. And every 1 percentage point increase in the volume of railroad freight can lead to the reduction of the overall logistics costs by 0.2 percentage points to 0.5 percentage points. Therefore, as the backbone of the comprehensive transportation system, the railroad in recent years to speed up the construction of the national fast cargo flow circle.
