Abstract

The article reflects the main current stages and directions of innovative development of Russian railroads. Russian Railways’ place in world rankings is evaluated integrally, indicating a stable high position of the domestic railway industry, at the same time reflecting the places where efforts are still required to improve parameters and characteristics. An illustrative scheme - routing of the implementation of the innovation strategy of the Russian railway industry, taking into account the plans and actual results achieved (based on the data published in official sources of information reflecting the activities of Russian Railways) - has been drawn up by the authors of the article. Significant attention in the study is paid to the digitalization of business systems in the industry, automation of document management and optimization of the organization of freight transportation on the example of the project “ETRAN”. The existing INTERTRAN project, whose main objective was to develop multimodal transport in the Asia-Pacific region and increase the competitiveness of rail transport, was discussed in detail. Discussed issues of legal regulation, application of legislation in the field of digitalization of the sectoral economy, and information support for rail transport are reflected in the article. Experience gained in developing the space, creating and maintaining the transport system and innovative development of our country’s railway complex, highlighted in this study, may be of interest and use to specialists involved directly in the process of transport management, as well as to a wide range of people in the international scientific community.
