Meter Gauge
• There's not many opertional metre gauge lines, most are in
  various states of gauge conversion.
  Still operating are: -
  Udaipur-Ahmedabad
  Pathankot-Jogindernagar (actually, I think this is narow gauge)
  Jaipur-Bikaner (via Ringas)
  Marwar-Mavli
  Mathura-Kasganj-Lalkual/Bareilly-Pilibhit-Gonda
  Murkong Selek-Rangiya
  Lumding-Silchar/Agartala
  Nagpur-Chindwara-Balaghat-Jabalpur
Broad Gauge
• These triple gauges exhibit the
  hierarchical impor-tance of the rail
  routes. The double track broad gauge
  today linking the metropolitan cities and
  major ports comes on the top followed by
  single track broad gauge branch line on
  peripheral trunk routes, meter gauge
  double track lines, meter gauge single
  track routes and narrow gauge rail lines.
Narrow Gauge
• Narrow gauge rail lines were laid down
  in the hilly, barren and thinly
  populated areas of less eco-nomic
  importance. Pathankot-Manali-Kalka-
  Shimla, Siliguri-
  Darjeeling.Mettupalayam-
  Ootacamund includes some important
  rail links under the system.
Difference between Meter
    Gauge and Broad Gauge
Meter Gauge             Broad Gauge
• Meter gauge refers • Broad gauge
  to railways with a      railways use a rail
  track                   gauge (distance
  gauge(distance
                          between the rails)
  between the rails) of
  1,000 mm                of 1,435 mm.
Difference between Metre Gauge,
Broad Gauge and Narrow Gauge
• Broad gauge is 1.44 metres in
  width.
• Metre gauge is1 metre with, the
  name itself denotes.
• Narrow gauge is used in moutain or
  hill trains which is less than a metre
  and it's width is0.79 metres.
