Detailed Solution

Railways created new demands from 1850. Railways were critical for colonial trade and the mobility of imperial forces. To power locomotives. Wood was required as fuel, and sleepers were required to keep railway lines together. Every mile of the rail route track required the utilization of somewhere in the range of 1760 and 2000 sleepers. The railroad network developed a quick start during the 1860s. As the length of the railway lines increased, many trees were cut. As early as the 1850s, the Madras Presidency alone chopped 35000 trees yearly for sleepers. The forests near the railway tracks began to vanish at a rapid pace.
