Hello!

Here is your answer!
==========================================================

The communication network of Indian Railways, is in one manner the life line of the nation.

Reliable: Goods produced elsewhere, like vegetables and fruits not grown locally are made available through this reliable mode of transport.


Economical: This economical transport system enables the local growers to get adequate returns for the efforts from extended markets. Because the freight charges are very reasonable therefore the cost factor added to these produce for transport do not increase the cost beyond reasonable limits. The same may be considered for the produce grown in abundance locally.


Huge communication network: Manufactured goods from factories set up at huge costs at different places in the country are transported through railways. The goods are available even at the furthest point and remote sections due to this huge communication network.


Merits Of railways:


1)t is a good ground transport for long distances. The railways network is already laid out.  Fast transport is possible.

2)Heavy goods and commercial goods can be transported easier on railway lines.  Airways are expensive.

3)Transport for common people is easier on railways as large number of people can travel on it.
