The '''Aldia Railway Corporation''' ({{wpl|Simplified Chinese Characters|Myrian}}: 阿尔迪亚铁路公司, Romanized: ''Āěrdíyǎ Tiělù Gōngsī'') is the national {{wp|state-owned enterprise|state-owned}} railway company & operator in [[Aldia]]. The [[Government of Aldia]] is the largest shareholder, holding 60% of the company's shares whereas the remaining 40% are publicly traded in the [[Fanrong Stock Exchange]]. ARC maintains and administers the country's rail network and operates a fleet of train services through its subsidiary companies such as the [[ARC High Speed Rail]] (ARC HSR) which operates a fleet of {{wp|inter-city rail|intercity}} {{wp|highs-speed rail}} trains services and [[ARC Continental Express]] which operates mostly conventional intercity train services. ARC is only responsible to administer & operate rail networks constructed by the Commonwealth Government which focused most of its efforts in connecting the capital & regional cities of each member states of the Commonwealth. Other train services such as {{wp|regional rail|regional}}, {{wp|commuter rail|commuter}}, {{wp|rapid-transit}} & {{wp|light rail}} networks are the areas of responsibility of each member state. ARC however does maintain & administer the [[Heping Mass Rapid Transit]] and [[Capital Commuter Rail Service]] networks as it is located in the city of [[Heping]], a city located within the Aldian Capital Territory both of which are directly administered by the Commonwealth Government.
== History ==
=== Early Years ===
The history of rail transport in the Myrian continent traces its origins all the way back to the early 18th century. During this the most common mode of transportation between cities and nations were in the form of {{wp|wagonway|wagonways}}, the use of horses to haul wagons filled with either goods or passengers. These Wagonways travelled on designated tracks, the predecessor of a modern train track. As the years went on, passenger and freight demand continued to increase, posing logistical challenges to the usage of horse-drawn wagonways. While cheap and readily available, the use of horses was not scalable in the long run. As passenger & freight demand increases one must either increase the number of horses that haul the ever growing number of wagons, or increase the frequency of the wagonways departure times. It was around the 1800s that the first {{wp|steam locomotive|steam powered locomotives}} were first invented, a byproduct of the industrial revolution. While revolutionary, organizations were slow to adopt them as they lacked the necessary power to haul passengers & freight on a commercial scale. These early locomotives were used mainly as technology demonstrations, the government held exhibitions where inventors & innovators unveiled the latest steam locomotives showing to the public and commercial entities its capabilities. In 1792 the first proper train tracks were laid down, connecting Fanrong and its neighboring cities. This marked the first commercialization of trains in the Myrian continent.
=== Continental Rail Era ===
As the years went, the development of more sophisticated and capable steam locomotives the usage of trains as a mode of passenger & freight transport became more commonly found. In 1822 the [[Continental Railway]], Myria's first proto-{{wp[|multinational corporation|multinational}} company, was established by the various nations of Myria and given the mandate to provide a {{wp|transcontinental railroad|transcontinental rail}} service throughout the entire Myrian continent. Construction began in 1826 from both the southern and northern tips of the continent was eventually completed by 1851. It was during this era that rail transport became a major player in transportation of people and goods throughout Myria. [[Continental Railways]] owned and operated both the rail network and train services across various Myrian nations and pays track access charges to the various governments it operates its network. The Continental Rail Era provided the foundation of a standardized list of policies, regulations and best practices for Myria's rail industry. Track gauges, electrifications, and signaling methods were uniformed. Various privately run railway services were also established but mostly competed within national borders, only Continental Railways was able to establish an established brand presence throughout the entire continent.
