HiRail Maintenance Products
The United States has the largest railway network in the world, stretching over 155,000 miles (259,448 km). It carries approximately one-third of the nation’s exports and transports 5,000,000 tons (4,535,925 metric tons) of freight and 85,000 passengers each day. Freight lines constitute about 80% of the country’s total rail network, while the total passenger network spans about 22,000 miles (35,405 km). This demanding and intricate system requires regular maintenance and upgrades to ensure the country’s economic and social growth stay on track.
