Detailed Solution

Railways were crucial for colonial trade and the movement of imperial troops. Railways helped transport raw materials from one place to another, and they also helped transport finished goods to the markets. The railway lines made colonial trade more efficient, easier, and profitable. By the early 1900s, India had the fourth-largest rail network in the world. The fast deployment of imperial troops to suppress the 1857 revolt was also possible because of the vast railway network. Hence the statement is true.
