International Railway Journal is first in global coverage of the Railway Industry.

International Railway Journal, introduced in 1960 as the first truly international railway trade publication, covers the rapidly developing railway marketplace for railway and rail transit managers and engineers, suppliers, and consultants worldwide.

IRJ's editorial coverage encompasses national railways worldwide, and public transport authorities in every city known to operate an urban rail system.

International Railway Journal is the world's only journal dedicated to the international railway industry whose complete circulation is audited by BPA. Not only is our total circulation audited, but more significantly, so is the reader's job function.
