Industry Description
Industries in the Rail Transportation subsector provide rail transportation of passengers and/or cargo using railroad rolling
stock. The railroads in this subsector primarily operate on networks, with physical facilities, labor force and equipment spread
over an extensive geographic area, or over a short distance on a local rail line.
al t
Scenic and sightseeing rail transportation and street railroads, commuter rail and rapid transit are not included in this
es r
subsector but are included in Subsector 487, Scenic and Sightseeing Transportation, and Subsector 485, Transit and Ground
Passenger Transportation, respectively. Although these activities use railroad rolling stock, they are different from the
e
activities included in rail transportation. Sightseeing and scenic railroads do not usually involve place-to-place
R po
transportation; the passenger's trip typically starts and ends at the same location. Commuter railroads operate in a manner
more consistent with local and urban transit and are often part of integrated transit systems.

*Note: "Summary" data above includes only activities and employees specific to this NAIC industry code, and only activities and
employees within the U.S. "Leading Companies" data includes top companies headquartered in the U.S. that are designated with this
N m
NAIC as a primary industry code. Consequently, the total revenues of these Leading Companies may be significantly higher than
F
the revenues assigned to the Summary section. In many industries, leading U.S.-based firms generate a significant amount of
revenues outside the U.S. or outside of their primary industry code. Likewise, a significant number of their employees may be
offshore and therefore not counted here. This will be especially true in a large number of manufacturing-based industries, such as

The historical and projected total revenues stated for an industry are for U.S. business operations (but not foreign subsidiaries
of U.S.-based companies). This report used Plunkett Research algorithms and analysis to estimate and forecast revenues,
both historical and for the future. Factors used include GDP growth, growth trends within the specific industry, government
agency reports, the latest reported results of publicly-held companies, and industry analysis.
al t
In addition, comparisons are provided between the industry sector for total companies and for publicly-held companies that
have the same NAIC code as their primary industry code.
es r
e
Publicly-held company revenues: You may see much higher total revenues for the public companies as a group than for the
primary industry sector itself. This is due to the fact that many companies financial results include revenues from other
R po
industries. (That is, their revenues reflect operations in the primary sector, plus operations in other sectors.) Also, public
companies results may include revenues generated outside of the U.S., in addition to U.S. revenues.
Publicly-held companies average operating metrics: This section provides average income statement, balance sheet and
cash flow items, for several years, for publicly-held, U.S.-based companies. It includes companies that have reported at least
$200,000 in revenues during recent years. (We have used this criteria in order to better present benchmark data on
r e
companies with actual operations, while eliminating development companies, blind pools and emerging firms with
insignificant revenues but high costs.)
o R
Notes:
1) Publicly-held corporate data: Data availability will vary according to the reporting methods and reporting consistency of
the companies involved. While publicly held companies are required by regulatory authorities to file financial reports on a
continual basis, many companies fail to meet their reporting obligations in a timely manner due to various circumstances,
t le
2) Industry Codes: NAIC codes (2012 North American Industry Classification codes) are used as a method of categorizing and
organizing data for this report. For additional information regarding NAIC codes, see http://www.census.gov/eos/www/naics/ .
o p
3) Scope of Details Provided: Certain data, such as number of establishments within an industry, or line-item details on
expenses for an entire industrial sector, rely heavily on U.S. government agency data. The more the industry is narrowed to a
small niche, the less likely it becomes that line-items will be available. Complete details are most often available for higher
N m
level NAIC codes, such as 220000 Utilities, than for niche codes, such as 222232 Electric Bulk Power Transmission. Where we
believe it will best serve the end user, we have used data from the nearest related NAIC. In such cases, we have noted the
F
NAICs covered.

Revenues are estimates. Revenues, profits and income taxes for Publicly-Held companies represent the total for U.S.-based firms that
Plunkett Research categorizes as having a primary industry code within this sector. The Plunkett Research database includes
approximately 7,000 active, U.S.-based publicly-traded firms.
* Profits, income taxes and EBITDA marked * (asterisk) represent estimates and forecasts based on Average Annual Operating Ratio
Estimates. See the table with that name for additional information.
o p
You may see higher total revenues for the Publicly-Held Companies group than for the All Companies group. This is due to the fact that
many companies' financial results include revenues from other industry sectors. That is, their revenues reflect operations in the primary
N m
industry, plus operations in other industries. In addition, public companies' revenues often include both U.S. and non-U.S. revenues.
