Japan was one of the first countries to build high-speed railways. The Japanese rail standard system consists of ordinary rail, end-hardened rail, and head-hardened rail. It’s a lot looser than the European standard.
AGICO is a professional and reliable supplier of railroad tracks. Our catalog includes railroad rails that meet the Japanese standard and other international rail standards.
