Railroad Police

Bol

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Railroad police are different from one country to another. Their roles are in some countries no different than that of any other police agency in others they are more related to a type of security police. They are all commonly responsible for the protection of railroad (or railway) vast networks of properties, facilities and personnel as well as public rail transit systems. Some are given extensive additional authority where other jurisdictions are more restricted. In the United States and Canada, all railroad police are employed by the major Class I railroads, as well as some smaller ones. In other countries, this work is typically done by territorial police forces rather than specialized agencies. In Britain, railways fall under the jurisdiction of the British Transport Police, a nation-wide transit police force that is responsible for policing all railways and some public transit systems.
