}About the railway-technology.com API
The railway-technology.com API provides structured access to 9 endpoints covering global railway industry news, infrastructure projects, and company profiles. Use get_latest_news to retrieve paginated article listings with titles, URLs, summaries, and dates, or drill into full article text, author, and publication date with get_news_article. Projects and companies are accessible via dedicated list and detail endpoints, enabling research across the global rail sector.
News and Search
The API exposes four news-related endpoints. get_latest_news returns paginated arrays of articles, each with title, url, summary, and date fields. get_news_article accepts a full article URL and returns the complete body text, author, date, and title. For discovery, search_news accepts any keyword or phrase via the query parameter and returns matching articles, projects, and companies with titles, URLs, summaries, and dates across the full site index.
Sector and Theme Filtering
get_news_by_sector filters articles by a sector_slug — verified working values include high-speed-railways, rolling-stock, and operations — and returns paginated results in the same article array format. get_news_by_theme works similarly but targets editorial themes such as artificial-intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud, robotics, and internet-of-things. Both endpoints accept an optional page integer for pagination and return the active sector or theme slug alongside the article array.
Projects and Companies
list_projects returns an array of global railway infrastructure project objects, each with a name and url. Optional region (e.g. europe) and sort (e.g. alphabetical) parameters filter and order results. get_project_details accepts a project URL and returns the name and full description text. On the company side, list_companies returns the A–Z directory as an array of name and url objects, and get_company_profile fetches a company's name, about description, and website URL when available.

Does railway-technology.com have an official developer API?+
What does `get_project_details` return beyond the project name?+
description string containing the full project description text found on the project page. Structured metadata fields (such as investment value, status, or timeline) are not guaranteed as separate fields — the endpoint captures the description block and any metadata table content found on the page.Are all sector and theme slugs discoverable through the API?+
get_news_by_sector has verified working slugs including high-speed-railways, rolling-stock, and operations. get_news_by_theme supports slugs like artificial-intelligence, cloud, cybersecurity, robotics, and internet-of-things. There is no dedicated list-all-sectors or list-all-themes endpoint currently. You can fork this API on Parse and add an index endpoint to enumerate all available slugs.Does the API return contact details or financial data for companies?+
get_company_profile returns name, about text, and a website URL when present on the profile page. Contact details, revenue figures, or employee counts are not exposed. You can fork this API on Parse and revise get_company_profile to capture additional fields if they appear on those pages.How does pagination work across the news endpoints?+
get_latest_news, get_news_by_sector, and get_news_by_theme endpoints all accept an optional page integer parameter. Responses include a page field confirming the current page. There is no total_pages or total_results field in the response, so callers should increment the page counter until an empty articles array is returned.
