An adhesion railway is a type of railway system that relies on friction between the train's wheels and the tracks to move the train forward. This type of system does not use additional mechanisms, such as gears or magnets, to help the train move, making it simpler and more common in most conventional railways. The traction, or grip, between the wheels and the rails is essential for the train to climb slopes and accelerate. Adhesion railways are widely used for passenger and cargo transport due to their effectiveness, although they may have limits in very steep or challenging terrain, where other systems, like cog railways, might be used.
