QUE SIGNIFIE RAILWAY EN ANGLAIS

Transport ferroviaire

Rail transport

Le transport ferroviaire est un moyen de transport de passagers et de marchandises, par l'intermédiaire de véhicules à roues qui fonctionnent sur des rails. Il est également communément appelé transport ferroviaire. Contrairement au transport routier, où les véhicules fonctionnent simplement sur une surface préparée, les véhicules ferroviaires sont également guidés de manière directionnelle par les pistes sur lesquelles ils fonctionnent. La piste comprend habituellement des rails en acier installés sur des traverses et des ballasts, sur lesquels se déplace le matériel roulant, généralement équipé de roues en métal. Cependant, d'autres variations sont également possibles, telles que la voie des dalles où les rails sont fixés sur une base de béton reposant sur une sous-surface préparée. Le matériel roulant dans les systèmes de transport ferroviaire a généralement une résistance au frottement plus faible par rapport aux véhicules routiers et les wagons passagers et de fret peuvent être couplés à des trains plus longs. L'opération est assurée par une compagnie de chemin de fer, assurant le transport entre les gares ou les installations du fret. La puissance est fournie par les locomotives qui tirent l'énergie électrique d'un système d'électrification ferroviaire ou produisent leur propre puissance, généralement par des moteurs diesel. La plupart des pistes sont accompagnées d'un système de signalisation.

Rail transport is a means of conveyance of passengers and goods, by way of wheeled vehicles running on rails. It is also commonly referred to as train transport. In contrast to road transport, where vehicles merely run on a prepared surface, rail vehicles are also directionally guided by the tracks on which they run. Track usually consists of steel rails installed on sleepers/ties and ballast, on which the rolling stock, usually fitted with metal wheels, moves. However, other variations are also possible, such as slab track where the rails are fastened to a concrete foundation resting on a prepared subsurface. Rolling stock in railway transport systems generally has lower frictional resistance when compared with highway vehicles and the passenger and freight cars can be coupled into longer trains. The operation is carried out by a railway company, providing transport between train stations or freight customer facilities. Power is provided by locomotives which either draw electrical power from a railway electrification system or produce their own power, usually by diesel engines. Most tracks are accompanied by a signalling system.
