Notes
  1. ↑ This refers to both track ownership and train operation
  2. ↑ This figure is the sum of the electrified lengths of the following railways: Amtrak (735 km),[2] Deseret Power Railway (53 km),[3] Iowa Traction Railway (9 km),[4] Long Island Rail Road (237 km),[2] Metra (99 km),[2] Metro-North Railroad (255 km),[2] Navajo Mine and Railroad (23 km),[5] NJ Transit Rail Operations (159 km),[2] SEPTA Regional Rail (277 km)[6] and Caltrain (82 km).
  3. ↑ Freight operated by private on public tracks
    commuter and metro operated by state
  4. ↑ The figure is mentioned as the total network length in 1990,[28] but the total network length may have grown after 1990.
  5. ↑ The Spanish railway network comprises the 11,934.3 km of the ADIF network (6,706.4 of them are electrified),[34] the 3,455.7 electrified km of the ADIF AV network,[35] the electrified Catalan FGC (253.4 km) and the electrified Metro networks of Madrid (293 km), Barcelona (166 km), Valencia (156.4 km), Bilbao (51 km), Seville (18 km), Palma (15.6 km) and Málaga (12 km).[36]
  6. ↑ This figure is a combination of the British (15,846 km)[38] and Northern Irish (333 km)[39] networks.
  7. ↑ This is the figure for Britain as Northern Ireland does not have any electrified railways.
  8. ↑ This figure is a combination of the British (20,419 mi)[40] and Northern Irish (754 mi)[41] networks in 1929. This gives a total of 21,173 mi, which is 34,075 km.
  9. ↑ This figure includes: Keretapi Tanah Melayu (1,655 km; 776 km electrified),[67] Express Rail Link (57 km electrified),[68] Sabah State Railway (134 km unelectrified) and the MRT and LRT network of Klang Valley (195 km electrified)
  10. ↑ The European Union (EU) is an economic and political union of 27 member states that are located primarily in Europe. The EU is included as a separate entity because it has many attributes of independent nations, being much more than a free-trade association such as ASEAN, NAFTA, or Mercosur.[88] Transport and trans-European networks are among the shared competencies between the EU and member states. As the EU is not a country, the United States is the first ranked country on these lists.

Although the EU is not a federation in the strict sense, it is far more than a free-trade association such as ASEAN, NAFTA, or Mercosur, and it has certain attributes associated with independent nations: its own flag, currency (for some members), and law-making abilities, as well as diplomatic representation and a common foreign and security policy in its dealings with external partners. Thus, inclusion of basic intelligence on the EU has been deemed appropriate as a new, separate entity in The World Factbook.
