Drones are already being used to examine high-tension electrical lines. They could do precisely the same
thing to inspect railway lines and other vital aspects of rail infrastructure such as the correct position of railway
tracks and switching points. The more regularly they can be inspected, the more railway safety, reliability and
on-time performance will be improved. Costs would be cut and operations would be more efficient(高效)across
the board.
...
By using the latest technologies, drones could also start providing higher-value services for railways,
detecting faults in the rail or switches, before they can cause any safety problems. To perform these tasks, drones
for rail don't need to be flying overhead. Engineers are now working on a new concept: the rail drones of thefuture. They will be moving on the track ahead of the train, and programmed to run autonomously. Very small
drones with advanced sensors and AI and travelling ahead of the train could guide it like a co-pilot. With their
ability to see ahead, they could signal any problem, so that fast-moving trains would be able to react in time.

made into clothes in different styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur unless you understand that the
nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year, "says Cree MeCree, project director of Righteous Fur.
