Raudteeliiklust

Raudteeliiklust is a term used to describe rail transport and related activities in Estonia. The country has a small but well-developed rail network that connects the capital city, Tallinn, with other major towns and cities. The rail network in Estonia has undergone significant changes in recent years, with a focus on improving passenger services and promoting intermodal transportation.

Elron, the national railway company of Estonia, operates the majority of passenger rail services in the country. The company offers regular trains connecting Tallinn with other major towns and cities, including Tartu, Narva, and Viljandi. Elron's fleet consists of both new and refurbished trains, offering comfortable seating and convenient amenities.

In addition to passenger services, Estonia's rail network also plays a crucial role in the country's freight transport services. The national rail network is used for the transportation of goods, including paper products, steel, and machinery. Rail freight transport in Estonia is primarily operating on the Stockholm-Tallinn-Leningrad transportation axis, providing an efficient and reliable means of transporting goods across the region.

The development of rail transport in Estonia is closely tied to the country's strategic location at the intersection of the European continent and the Baltic States. As a result, the country's rail network has become an important connectivity hub for neighboring countries, facilitating the exchange of goods and people between Estonia and its neighboring states.
