Multiple types of transportation modes are required to cooperate through the network to fulfill the "door to door" freight express service. In the range of the entire freight express industry, highway, air and rail compete at diverse extents in the trunk corridor. Rail is capable of working better in the freight express industry with the sixth large-scale speed-up in the nationwide railway in China and the construction of the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway. This paper presents the railway orientation and its line operation mode in the Chinese freight express market through an analysis of network characteristics and Occident practices in the perspective of service network.
