The aim of this research is to indicate the productivity of Iran railway in international transit. This research is conducted using analytical methods based on library studies and documents. In this study, Iran railway and 26 UIC member railways have been studied based on 15 UIC approved indexes (i.e. ten productivity indices as long as five infrastructure Indices). In addition to showing Iran's position in the industry in UIC members, the importance of this industry is examined, especially in Iran and the results show that except two productivity indices (i.e. person kilometers of the passenger coaches and person kilometers to the population), the other indices have performed poorly and need to be studied to strengthen the Iran rail network and fleet.
