Home›Railway and Rail Transit Operators›Headquarters CountryBrowse ByHeadquarters CountryThis dimension groups transport networks by the country where their headquarters is based. Wikipedia defines a headquarters as "the location where most or all of the important functions of an organization are coordinated," and that location is often a different country from where the network actually operates.
