Each section of track is counted only once, regardless of how many lines pass over it, and regardless of whether it is single-track or multi-track , single carriageway or dual carriageway .

Map of the world with rail density (length of rail network divided by area of country) highlighted. This does not necessarily reflect actual rail use. This is a list of countries by rail usage. Usage of rail transport may be measured in tonne-kilometres (tkm) or passenger-kilometres (pkm) travelled for freight and passenger transport ...
