In recent years, a growing number of

people

have decided to

travel

by train.

Such

a practice has aroused the attention of the public and

people

have mixed views on

this

issue. Some believe the developed train

system

enables residents to

travel

at low costs whereas others argue that building of

railway

system

requires a tremendous amount of money. Personally, I prefer the train

system

to highways for the following reasons.

First

of all,

people

can transport goods and products via the

railway

system

in a timely manner. The designated routes for

trains

make sure there is no obstacle to obstruct them when it is operating.

In addition

,

trains

can carry more products than many other transport means,

such

as trucks, mini-van, etc. As indicated by the study of Nanjing University,

trains

provide immense flexibility for goods transporting as they can

travel

2 times faster than private cars without compromising their safety. As a consequence, many businesses are much more rely on the

railway

than on roads. Aside from that, the

railway

system

is

also

an important transport connecting the regional areas and metropolitans. The accessibility of

trains

enables

people

living in different areas to

travel

at ease. The survey conducted by Havard University reveals that the development of the
