Abstract

The railway is the major artery of national economic development. At present, the demand for railway passenger transportation presents the characteristics of multi-structure, multi-level, and multi-segmented markets. To achieve the coordinated development of railway enterprises and the economy is a major challenge. In order to construct a railway passenger transport demand system. This paper uses the method of factor analysis and puts forward to three common factors to build up the comprehensive scoring model in 9 indicators. It shows that the demand for railway passenger transport in various provinces in the eastern part of China is different. The factors influencing the demand for railway passenger transport in all provinces are also different, among which Beijing and Shanghai are the highest, and Hebei and Hainan are lower. China's railway construction needs to pay attention to the gaps between districts.
