Question

the physical logical and economic factor that have influence and the distribution pattern of the railway network in our country

Answer 1

physical factors:
1 railway lines can be laid only upon plains.
2 therefore distribution of railways in the north Himalayan region and northeastern parts of the country is very less.
3 the northern plains with vast level land, high population density, and rich agricultural resources provided the most favorable condition for the growth of railways.
4 bridges are required to built over the rivers and the wide water passages.
5 in the hilly areas, of the peninsular region, railway tracts are laid through low hills, gaps or tunnels.
6 it was also difficult to lay railway lines in the sandy plains of western Rajasthan, swamps of Gujrat, forested tracts of Madhya Pradesh, Chattisgarh, Orrisa and Jharkhand.
7 in the west, the contiguous stretch Sahydari could be passed only through gaps or passes.

economic factors:
1 in today's times the railway, besides being a transport system is a main source of income for the country.
2 railway distribution is intense in the areas of high agricultural yields such as the northern plains.
3 in recent time, development of Konkan railways along the west coast has facilitated the movement of goods to the required area, increasing the economic development of the west.
4 railways are also built along the water bodies because seaports is the major
area for trading. the goods traded there could be transported to other places through railways.
5 railways are more developed in the areas where tour and travels are a major economic development source.
