The Tasmania rail network is primarily a privately operated freight system and there are no regular passenger services other than for small tourist railways. The main goods transported are bulk cement and fertiliser, coal for a number of major Tasmanian industries, sulphuric acid, logs for woodchip export and paper production, liquid clay, and goods by container.

More information on Tasmanian rail transport network can be found from the Department of Infrastructure, Energy and Resources (DIER) web site: http://www.transport.tas.gov.au/. A map of the Tasmanian Rail Network is also available from the DIER web site under Rail > Rail System.
