Wikipedia's list of spaceports: List of rocket launch sites - Wikipedia
We have some threads here about rail lines at the Kennedy / Canaveral spaceport:
RAILROAD.NET • View topic - Cape Canaveral/Kennedy Space Center RR?
RAILROAD.NET • View topic - NASA Railroad to be reactivated
About the other big US spaceport:
RAILROAD.NET • View topic - Vandenberg AFB, CA rails pulled
The Union Pacific's Coast Line goes near it.
It's hard to tell what its launch arrangements are, but some of the rockets seem like they are assembled on their launchpads, with their assembly buildings then rolling away on rails.
The Baikonur spaceport has a sizable amount of on-site trackage, what its Wikipedia article claims is the largest industrial railroad in the world.

The rockets are assembled, then go horizontally by rail to their launchpads, where they are pivoted to vertical for launch.
Plesetsk Cosmodrome - Wikipedia is Russia's other big spaceport. It's more difficult to tell how railed it is, but I've found pictures of rail lines extending from launchpads there. It may work much like Baikonur.
The European Space Agency's largest spaceport is Guiana Space Centre - Wikipedia at Kourou, French Guiana. It has rail lines for transporting rockets to their launchpads: Space Centre Railways in French Guiana, 2014
The Ariane 5 rockets are moved vertically, on a platform that has lots of bogies and that runs on two tracks. It is pulled by a flat-road truck, though pulled very slowly.
Satish Dhawan Space Centre - Wikipedia, India's major spaceport, features an arrangement much like Kourou's, with rockets being transported on platforms that rest on pairs of tracks.
It is about 83 km / 52 mi north of Chennai, a major city, and it is near a rail line.
Japan and China also have some spaceports, but it's harder to find much about them, so I'll leave off here.
