The construction of a railway hub logistics base system has many influencing factors and a high construction cost. There is an extremely important social and economic significance to the evaluation of its planning scheme. This study has obtained practical experience from a large number of existing railway hub planning schemes in China, using the analytic hierarchy process. Then, macro- and micro-level layout planning principles were analyzed. Moreover, 16 evaluation indicators were established at the macro and micro levels. The analytic hierarchy process and a comprehensive evaluation index method were used to deal with all indicators and give the score of the planning scheme. Lastly, Hefei railway hub in China was taken as an example to test the theory above
