The aim of this article is to provide crucial information on CFRP composites and examples of their use in rail vehicle construction. The first part outlines the key characteristics of CFRP composites and compares their properties with conventional structural materials. Implementation examples of this group of composites for structural components of rail vehicles are discussed further. The final section of the article analyses the reasons for introducing composites of this type into the engineering practice of railways.
