Technical Regulatory Standards On Japanese Railways

[bill937ca]

While surfing for something non-Japanese, I came across this MLIT English language document.  It lays out regulations on various technical areas like guide way ( cant, gauge widening on curves (!!) ), , maintenance of facilities, rolling stock, train operation etc.
