Answer

Two advantages of railways are-

  1. Railways transport raw materials to the production units and finished goods to the markets.
  2. Railways help in reducing sufferings during natural calamities.

One disadvantage of railways is that rail transport lacks flexibility of routes. Train tracks cannot be laid in every region of the country like in the hilly areas and the remote forested areas.
