Military Railroad

A Military Railroad (MILR) refers to railroads operated or utilized by the armed forces to transport troops, equipment, and supplies during wartime or military operations. These railroads can be national or strategic assets, often securing vital logistics routes, maintaining supply lines, or supporting troop movements. They might be temporarily constructed, modified, or reinforced to meet wartime needs and can include specialized trains and infrastructure. MILRs are essential for efficient, large-scale transportation, enabling rapid deployment and sustainment of military forces across long distances.
