उत्तर
- The densely forested plains of the Amazon River Basin, as well as swampy lands, prevented railway expansion in Brazil.
- Large areas of Brazil are unpopulated. Roadways are the most popular means of transportation in Eastern Brazil, and waterways have developed commercially along the Amazon River.
- Only a few cities, as well as visitors, use trains for long-distance transportation. These are the challenges in developing the railway system in Brazil’s internal regions.
