The railway is one of the key factors in the sustainable development of modern society. To improve its competitiveness against other modes of transport, it is necessary to constantly improve it and use innovative technical solutions and technologies. We consider the use of specific information technology, namely Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. The RFID technology is used in various systems, but in this paper, we use the RFID device for monitoring the freight wagons. The RFID systems provide automated tracking of rail vehicles via RFID tags, readers and integrated middleware, and thus enable wagons and locomotive identification and location information available for further analysis and tracking. We present the two-phase model for optimizing the RFID locations on Serbian railways for monitoring and collecting the data from freight trains. In the first phase we use the FUCOM-TOPSIS model for determining the macro location on the railway network, and in the second phase we use the fuzzy logic model for determining the micro-location of the RFID device on the rail line.
