Railway electrificationRailway electrification is the use of electric power for the propulsion of rail transport. Electric railways use either electric locomotives (hauling passengers or freight in separate cars), electric multiple units (passenger cars with their own motors) or both.

Some electric railways have their own dedicated generating stations and transmission lines, but most purchase power from an electric utility.
