Abstract
Based on the node importance, this paper carries on research to marshalling station location problem. The node importance evaluation index is established and principal component analysis (PCA) is adopted to calculate the index weight. Then, the formula of node importance is presented. In the end, an example is given to prove the validity of this method which can be regarded as a new method to quantity the marshaling station location problem.
