What is invisible tradeWhat is broad gauge and narrow gauge |
| Answer» \tInvisible trade involves the import and export of services rather than goods. Example include services such as insurance, banking, tourism, education.\tBroad gauge is also called wide gauge or large line. The distance between the two tracks in these railway gauges is 1676 mm (5 ft 6 in). It would not be wrong to say that any gauge, wider than standard gauge or 1,435 mm (4 ft 8½ inches), is called broad gauge.\tThe small gauge is called as Narrow gauge or a small line. The narrow gauge railway is the railway track, in which distance between two tracks is 2 ft 6 in (762 mm) and 2 ft (610 mm). In 2015, there was a 1,500 km narrow gauge rail route, which is considered to be about 2% of the total Indian rail network. As the country is developing, small line services are expected to be completed by 2018. | |
