It depends on the country you may not interested in the line of the railway and the train schedule (eg, a train running over the length of the sheath is given less time) the application and uses the type of coupler.

Here in Europe, the long-distance trains no more than ~ 800 meters (875yards), moves into the power lines have to be much shorter. Since most routes are shorter, and because the buffer used and the string-coupling "in Europe does not have enough weight. But there are special ore trains in Germany, stated that the use of the SA-3-couplings and on a specific timetable permit a greater length (Special trains planned, because the right of way, must in the winter as siding).

The longer trains in the world led the United States, Australia and China, and in some mining areas in Africa. Mileage These traits may be of different length. The longest train ever a mining railroad in Australia, with ~ 7.3 kilometers (~ 4.5mi), consisting from 682 cars and 6 drivers.

There is no maximum number allowed, except for physical constraints such as length or overweight.
Railways could a train running 30 miles, if the buyer could get there.

Their number depends on the average in terms of the line and the road is a difficult question to answer, but working on the track where the average I guess, 80 or 85 cars or near the top of my head.

Some lines have an average size much smaller because there are only so many customers Arent.

Some airlines have steep mountain grade and camber of the train is so long, and parts of the country's roads are fairly simple and standard so that the average size of the trains could be much longer.

Depending on the engine performance (s). So, if a locomotive which has a maximum distance of about 5,000 tons, the number of cars many times. So if cars are rated at 50 tons, the train consists of 100 cars. If you can be a second mad, the ability to train and multiply Locos x 2 with a deadweight of 5,000 tons a train up to 200 cars.

Train length can be due to limitations) of land (hills or mountains, the power available (usually not a problem, a lot of engines for all) and restrictions in line. The latter refers to the length of the tracks that the trains can pass each other.

I have several times the coal trains over 100 units in length, including the power.
