High-speed rail (HSR) is a type of rail transport that runs significantly faster than traditional rail traffic. It uses an integrated system of specialized rolling stock and dedicated tracks. Usually, the high-speed train operates on standard gauge tracks of a continuously welded rail on grade-separated right-of-way that incorporates a large turning radius in its design. The length of HSR tracks worldwide is undergoing rapid growth to meet the increasing demand of high speed transportation. As interest in high-speed rail (HSR) surges around the world, the number of countries running these trains is expected to nearly double from 2014 to 2019, which will boost the global high speed train seat market. The global market report is segmented by comfort type, function, railcar type, and geography.

Governments across the world are actively involved in developing faster and convenient modes of transportation by investing in high speed rail infrastructure projects. HSR plays a vital role in the transportation system by delivering long term conveyance solutions. It brings cities closer, thereby helping the businesses grow. It serves as an alternative to domestic aviation and saves considerable time of the commuters. HSR has a low impact on environment as compared to air and road transport, as it mitigates harmful emissions and energy consumption level.
