Abstract. The current paper has considered the legislative component of enforcing railway transport security as an integral element of the national security of the Russian Federation. There have been considered such basic concepts as “transport security zone” and “anti-terrorist security of an object” of the railway infrastructure. There has been proved that counteracting terrorism is impossible without putting transport infrastructure facilities into categories and approving security criteria for rolling stock. There have been studied organizational and legal conditions for railway transport operation and, on their basis, there have been made recommendations for further improving the regulatory framework in the field of railway transport security.

Keywords: security; legislation; transport; terrorism; counteracting.
