This paper examines the risks to railway structures from train impacts. The authors develop a method to assess the damage risks and costs to bridges, tunnels, and other infrastructure from derailments or collisions. They create a model to estimate the probability and consequences of train impacts based on factors like line usage, track layout, and vehicle speeds to help railway operators evaluate safety and maintenance needs.
