Many international railway transport lines from China to Europe have been established with the further implementation of “Belt and Road”, such as “Chongqing-Xinjiang-Europe international railway”, “Chang’an international railway” and “Chengdu-Europe international railway”. That not only shapes the brand of “China-Europe freight trains” and the image and capacity of China’s land international logistics, but also establishes an international railway transport route which links different positions and the Central Asia. To further improve the operational efficiency of the “Chang’an” China-Europe freight trains, the effects of such aspects as Xi’an traffic location, opening time, operation route, freight cycle, freight volume in the past three years on “Chang’an” China-Europe freight train through combining its own characteristics are analyzed in this paper. Although “Chang’an” China-Europe freight trains has several advantages in traffic location and energy resources, its information level, unstable international railway transportation environment, insufficient return cargo sources, overall planning and hardware measures still need to be improved in practical operation. Finally, the development suggestions and countermeasures are also proposed in terms of the subsidy policy, shipping route and cargo sources structure. Introduction The China-Europe freight trains refers to the fast freight line from China to the Silk Road economy belt and different European countries, mainly applying the “five-set scheduled train” of containers or truck-load transportation [1,2]. The “five-set scheduled train” can be divided into two organizational forms, including the container liner and the common cargo liner, which majorly involves the express cargo trains organized on the railway trunk lines between cities, ports and stations with “fixed-point, fixed-line, fixed-number, fixed-time and fixed-price”. The China-Europe freight train lines which are currently in operation are: the west line along the Longhai-Lanxin lines and exits at Alataw Pass; the central route along the Beijing-Guangzhou line and Jining-Erenhot line and exits at Erenhot; and the eastern route which exits at Manchuria. The Development of China-Europe Freight Trains Since June 8, 2016, China Railway has officially launched the unified brand of “China-Europe freight trains”; in 2018, a total of 6300 lines of China-Europe freight trains have been opened, an increase of 72% over the same period last year [3]; and by the end of 2018, a total of 13,000 lines of China-Europe freight trains have been opened, with 59 cities in China running 65 lines reaching 49 cities in 15 countries of Europe. The statistics as showed in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2:
