Question:
The number of trains and their corresponding speeds for a curved Broad Gauge section with 437 m radius, are- 20 trains travel at a speed of 40 km/hr
- 15 trains travel at a speed of 50 km/hr
- 12 trains travel at a speed of 60 km/hr
- 8 trains travel at a speed of 70 km/hr
- 3 trains travel at a speed of 80 km/hr

Top Questions on Geometric design of railway Track
- A horizontal curve of radius 1080 m (with transition curves on either side) in a Broad Gauge railway track is designed and constructed for an equilibrium speed of 70 kmph. However, a few years after construction, the Railway Authorities decided to run express trains on this track. The maximum allowable cant deficiency is 10 cm.
The maximum restricted speed (in kmph) of the express trains running on this track is __________ (rounded off to the nearest integer).- GATE CE - 2024
