Spread of railways created a new demand in the country.
Wood was needed as a fuel in order to run the locomotives.
Sleepers were essential to hold the tracks together and for making 1 mile of track 2000 sleepers were needed.
As a result rapidly reducing of forest cover led to demand for timber supply for the royal Navy to build ships and weapons.
