What is rail transport?

Rail transport or train transport is a means of transferring passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, which are located on tracks. In contrast to road transport, rail transport is faster, safer and more comfortable, with a large volume of passengers and high punctuality rates. It is all-weather, with lower freight and energy-saving transport. It includes traditional railways (national railways, intercity railways, and municipal railways), subways, light rail, and trams.
