Spanish term

vías de comunicación ferroviaria

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Transport / Transportation / Shipping
(i) La vía general de comunicación ferroviaria que corresponde a cada concesión, con la configuración, superficies, límites y rutas detalladas en cada uno de los anexos de los títulos respectivos, así como su operación y explotación.

Las vías generales de comunicación ferroviaria comprenden la vía férrea, el derecho de vía, los centros de control de tráfico y las señales para la operación ferroviaria.

Are these "railroad communication lines" in the sense of an overall traffic control network? Or is this not "communication" at all?

railway networks

You could also translate the term as railroad tracks, but the concept is anything that a railcar can travel on.
