<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Railways transportation is the means of transfer of passengers and goods using railway systems. It is the safest mode of transit. A railways system is a complex form of engineering. Each system has two major components- the rolling stock or locomotives, and the rail tracks along with their supporting structures and ancillary buildings. Railway signalling is an essential aspect of railway transportation. Railway transportation engineering is responsible for the design, construction and operation of rail transport systems. It encompasses the design and implementation of train control systems, railway systems engineering, control and railway engineering, etc. Efficient railway transportation ensures the continuation of functional supply chain and population mobility. Railway reliability is threatened by an aging infrastructure, security threats, increasing freight costs and inadequate capacity, research in railways transportation systems and engineering is most pertinent in today's scenario. The objective of this book is to give a general view of the different railway transportation systems, and their engineering. It covers in detail some existing theories and innovative concepts revolving around railway transportation. This book is a resource guide for experts as well as students.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Railways transportation is the means of transfer of passengers and goods using railway systems.
