railway engineering
Railway engineering is a branch of engineering focused on the design, construction, and maintenance of railway systems. This includes the tracks, bridges, tunnels, and stations that facilitate the movement of trains and passengers. Engineers in this field ensure that railways are safe, efficient, and capable of handling various types of trains, including freight and passenger services.
Additionally, railway engineering involves the integration of technology for signaling and communication systems, which help manage train operations and enhance safety. Professionals in this field work closely with transportation planners and civil engineers to develop sustainable and effective railway networks that meet the needs of communities.
