High Speed Railway System Implementation Handbook
High Speed Rail (HSR) is a type of public transport system that is becoming more and more popular world-wide. At the present time there are High Speed established systems of varying ages in different European and Asian countries and at the same time, there are other nations looking into building new routes, including the United States. There are many reasons why a country may wish to construct high speed rail lines, from congestion in existing transport modes to a desire to reduce dependency on fossil fuels to name two, but fundamentally the purpose of a high speed rail system is to move people, and, therefore, must be accessible to those wishing to use it.
