Rail Standards and Parameters in Various Countries – Royal Steel Group


Rails are a vital component of the rail transportation system, carrying the weight of trains and guiding them along the tracks. In railway construction and maintenance, different types of standard rails play different roles to adapt to different transportation needs and environmental conditions. This article will introduce the characteristics and technical specifications of various standard rails to help readers better understand the key components in the railway transportation system.
