The International Conference on Advanced Railways and Transportation 2025 has been held biennially since 2016, by the Korean Society for Railway, to provide a unique platform for researchers to share their latest research progress and explore future directions of railway engineering and transportation studies.

Railways are more environmentally friendly than any other means of transport. However, there are disadvantages such as high cost, high safety, and high punctuality. To efficiently overcome these disadvantages and develop into a sustainable means of transportation, various AI technologies have begun to be applied to the railway system.
