Which is the longest trans-continental railway of North America? |
Answer» Solution :Trans-Canadian Railway is the longest trans-continental railway of North America. Features: Trans Canadian railway is 7050km long and runs from Halifax in the east to Vancouver to the WEST, through Montreal, Ottawa and Winnipeg. It was initially constructed as a part of an agreement to make BRITISH Columbia on the West coast join federation of states. It gained economic significance because it connected the Quebec-Montreal industrial region with the WHEAT belt of the Prairie region, and the coniferous forest region in the north, thus making each of them complimentary to the other. A loop LINE connects it to the important waterways of the WORLD. It is the economic artery of Canada, and wheat and meat are important exports on this route. |
