The bottom line

Only about 15% of Support Activities for Rail Transportation is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.

Why: Because all child occupations lack a computed digital scalar, this score relies on the industry lens and description. The core output involves 'servicing, routine repairing', and 'loading and unloading rail cars', which are fundamentally manual tasks. The employed occupations (e.g., Rail Car Repairers, Track Laying Equipment Operators, Crane and Tower Operators) further confirm that the value-producing work is heavily hands-on, outdoor, and mechanical, yielding a strongly physical rating.
