Abstract: In the period of Nanjing national government, the ministry of railways held exhibitions of goods produced along the railway four times in order to expand the passenger and cargo flow, increase railway transport capacity and promote the development of goods along the railway. Based on the consideration that the railway and goods produced along the railway were in a kind of coexistence and common prosperity, the ministry of railways carried out public opinion mobilization from the perspective of the industrial salvation, the benefit of railway exhibition to agriculture, industry and commerce, and the importance of railway transportation respectively. The four railway exhibitions expanded the railway transportation efficiency and promote the development of the railway to a certain extent. Due to the constraints of propaganda, geographical, the ills of the railway itself and other factors, the overall effect was not satisfactory. The improvement of railway transportation depended on the joint efforts of the production, transportation, marketing and other multiple forces, but the key lay in a radical reform of the ills of the railway itself.
