Only the program of corporate informatization of the transportation process in the period from 2019 to 2025 allocated about 132 billion rubles. For the creation of a unified intellectual system of management and automation of production processes on railway transport over the same period, 3.5 billion rubles have been allocated. Well, it is planned to invest about 78 billion rubles over six years to upgrade equipment and communication devices.

The Digital Railway began to be developed after the presidential decree of May 7 of last year “On the national goals and strategic objectives of the development of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2024”.

In the paragraph “Digitalization and Information Technologies” it is noted that the list of key areas for the development of information systems of Russian Railways will include the formation of a single information space for freight traffic and logistics, plus the same space for the passenger complex to increase profitability.

A digital platform for managing and monitoring traffic will track the location and status of cargo, including the door-to-door service. Thus, it is planned to provide a “legally significant exchange” of electronic documents with the participants of transportation and the end-to-end use of digital transport data.

The number of created digital tools for organizing passenger transportation includes multimodality, planning and maintenance of a “door-to-door journey”, personalized services for passengers, electronic fare payment services, a flexible tariff menu and a loyalty program.

"Digital Railway" will provide an opportunity to form end-to-end digital technologies of the transportation process in order to improve the efficiency of transportation and infrastructure. It is also assumed that in the next six years a unified integrated automated management system of the state corporation will be created, optimization of corporate management systems, analysis and development of reporting of foreign activities will be carried out.

A system of intelligent traffic control will be formed, which will provide access to current data of transport and infrastructure, modeling of the processes of construction, operation and repair with reference to time and budgeting.

The project will integrate the Internet of things, big data processing, a distributed registry, digital modeling and artificial intelligence. The creation of mobile workplaces of the new generation is also planned, plus the introduction of electronic document circulation.

Accordingly, the developers modify the computing and telecommunications infrastructure of Russian Railways to ensure a guaranteed level of availability of information services.

Now Russia is implementing the Digital Economy program, for the implementation of which it is planned to spend 1.8 trillion rubles in the next five years. More than 1 trillion - federal budget funds.
