Rail gantry cranes are the core resources of railway container center stations which affect the operating efficiency and costs of stations. In this paper, a rail gantry crane deployment model is proposed which considers the operation time as well as balanced utilization of equipment. Further, this multi-objective function is transformed to a single objective model with a weight coefficient method. Finally, this paper puts forword optimization ideas for the deployment of core resources in a railway container center station.
