Railroads have been a vital presence in American transportation for nearly 200 years moving both passengers and freight efficiently and effectively.

Passenger systems, whether through Amtrak or various commuter railroads, require public assistance and either operate on their own track or pay to use freight railroad-owned track.

Safer Railroading: A Guide Toward Targeted Safety Policy
Railroads are among the safest modes of transportation for workers, riders, and the public.
