The Railways Database (RDB) was first developed by the World Bank in the late 1980s.  It provides a set of indicators for the railways sub-sector of transport covering size, scale and various measures of productivity over a time frame long enough to permit adequate cross-sectional and time series performance evaluations.

The Private Concessions Database (PCD) developed in late 1990’s contains information on railway concessions.
