a type of railroad where trains rely on friction between the wheels and the track for propulsion rather than using a cog or rack system
What is an "adhesion railway"?
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.
Example
In an adhesion railway, locomotives and carriages maintain traction through the weight pressing down on the tracks.
Engineers design adhesion railways to handle various weather conditions and track gradients efficiently.
Adhesion railways require careful management of wheel-to-rail contact to prevent slipping, especially in wet or icy conditions.

Unlike cogwheel railways found in mountainous regions, adhesion railways are more common in flat or moderately sloped terrain.
Operators ensure that adhesion railways are kept clear of debris to maintain sufficient grip between the wheels and the rails.
