Be it carrying agriculture produce to distant places, aiding growth of industries and connecting major ports, railways have significantly helped in bridging the distance between the different places and regions of our country. As a relatively cheap mode of transport, it has been a preferred mode of travel and one of the instruments in national integration. Railways have also a played vital role in mitigating the suffering of people in natural calamities, drought, floods, famines, earthquake etc. Railways are specially suited to carry bulky materials like coal, petroleum and oars etc. Over the years the railway engines have developed from steam to diesel and now majorly to electric. This has added to make the train services super fast which has in a way contributed to quick movement of passengers and materials. With over 67,580 route kms, Indian Railways is the third-largest network in the world.
