A railway electrification system supplies electrical energy to railway trains and trams so that they can operate without having an on-board prime mover. Railway electrification has many advantages over other power systems for traction, but it requires significant capital expenditure for installation. In this article "system" refers to the technical configuration and details adopted; "network" refers to the geographical extent of a system actually installed at a location. Wikipedia [ - ]
