Detailed Solution

The first train from Mumbai to Thane has covered 34km. The largest public sector enterprise in the nation is the Indian Railways. India's railways connect the nation's economy and hasten the growth of its business and agricultural sectors. In 1853, the first railway traveled a distance of 34 kilometers from Mumbai to Thane. On Saturday, April 16, 1853, a 21-mile railway line from Bombay to Tannah (now Thane) was inaugurated amid a 21-gun salute. At 3.30 p.m., the first train in India, maybe not all of Asia, propelled by two enormously dark engines and carrying 400 delighted passengers sped out of Bori Bunder. Indian Railways have been a powerful factor for integration for 150 years or more.
