{{Infobox rail }} is used to create an infobox on articles about railway companies ; railroad_name is the only mandatory parameter. {{Infobox rail line }} is used for railway lines ; this template is sometimes used on articles about both a company and a line (eg Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway ).
For railways that operate on standard gauge tracks or for former railways that operated on standard gauge tracks, {{Infobox SG rail }} uses this template but fills in the gauge parameter automatically.
