4. Definition
Railways are a unified system consisting of
infrastructure, facilities and human resources, as well as
norms, criteria, requirements and procedures for the
implementation of rail transportation.

5. Type of the train
1. Long Distance Train
Long Distance Train or KAJJ is an intercity train pulled by a locomotive.
2. Commuter Line (KRL)
The series of carriages run on two rails (a pair), capable of traveling at a
maximum speed of 90 km/hour, on elevated rails and on the ground.
3. MRT
The series of carriages run on two rails (a pair), can run at a maximum
speed of 110 km/hour, on elevated rails and underground rails.
4. LRT
Light Rail Transit (LRT). The series of carriages run on three rails, can
run at a maximum speed of 90 km/hour on the elevated rail. The LRT
consists of four carriages with a total passenger capacity of 600 people.

8. How the Train Works
1. Steam Train
The steam that fuels this train is produced from heating water that is
heated using firewood, coal, or oil. The water vapor will press the
piston (the mover in the train engine) until it produces energy to
move the wheels of the train.
2. Diesel train
Just like diesel engined vehicles. Trains, both types of locomotives or
diesel trains, use diesel fuel or B30.
3. Electric train
This train uses electricity as its driving force. Above the rails, there is
a cable connection that is connected to each other. Then, the
pantograph on the train becomes a 'tool' to connect the electricity
from the cable to the train engine.
4. Magnetic levitation train
This type does not yet exist in Indonesia because the costs required
are very large. so, this chariot uses magnetic power to move it. This
train does not touch the rails when running. later the train body will lift
and move following the magnetic field that is its track.

10. Strength and Weaknesses
 Strength :
1. Comfortable and safe (low accident rate).
2. Free of traffic jams.
3. A lot of carrying capacity.
4. Reduce emission gas
 Weaknesses :
1. Not all cities have stations.
2. The train delay isn’t worth the the compensation given.
3. Must be connected with other transportation.
4. Air Conditioner (AC) off.

11. Conclusion
The train is a means of transportation in the form of a
vehicle with motion power, either walking alone or
coupled with other vehicles, which moving on rails. The
train is a means of transportation that is used both for
the public and non-public.
