Which of the following place was a Railway town established in India after the introduction of the railways in 1853?

All of the above

The introduction of railways in 1853 meant a change in the fortunes of towns. Economic activity gradually shifted away from the traditional towns which were located along old routes and rivers.

Every railway station became a collection depot for raw materials and a distribution point for imported goods. For instance, Mirzapur on the Ganges, which specialised in collecting cotton and cotton goods from the Deccan, declined when a railway link was made to Bombay. With the expansion of the railway network, railway workshops and railway colonies were established. Railway towns like Jamalpur, Waltair and Bareilly developed.
