👉 Railway engineering is a specialized field that encompasses the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of railway systems, including tracks, bridges, tunnels, signaling systems, and rolling stock. It involves a multidisciplinary approach, integrating civil engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and computer science to ensure the safe, efficient, and reliable transportation of passengers and goods. Engineers must consider factors such as track alignment, curvature, gradient, and material durability to optimize performance while adhering to safety standards. Modern railway engineering also incorporates advanced technologies like automated signaling, electronic train control systems, and data analytics for predictive maintenance, enhancing overall system efficiency and reducing operational costs.
