A rail communication system (500, 600) includes: a communication management device (114, 116, 714, 716) capable of being communicatively coupled with a conductive pathway (118, 718, 804, 904) that extends along a track (120, 720); and an on-board communication device (506, 704) capable of being coupled with a rail vehicle (102, 104, 702) that travels along the track (120, 720) and with the conductive pathway (118, 718, 804, 904), the communication management device (114, 116, 714, 716) and the on-board communication device (506, 704) configured to communicate a data signal between each other through the conductive pathway (118, 718, 804, 904), where the data signal includes network data. |
