rail transport infrastructure

Rail transport infrastructure includes the physical components that enable trains to operate safely and efficiently. This comprises tracks (rails, sleepers, ballast), signaling systems to direct train movements, stations for passengers and freight, and maintenance facilities. It also involves electric or diesel power supplies and modern control systems to manage train schedules. Together, these elements form a network that allows trains to transport people and goods across regions, supporting economic activity and connectivity. Well-designed infrastructure ensures smooth, safe, and reliable rail operations while adapting to evolving transportation needs.
