(b) The broad gauge is _____ wide.

(i) 80-95 cm

(i) 76-05 cm

(ii) 100-0 cm

(iv) 167-6 cm ✓

(c) Nowadays, the rail section on Indian railway is

(i) double headed

(ii) bull headed

(ii) dumbbell type

(iv) flat footed ✓

d) Between two sleepers, the minimum space for the packing provided is

(i) 25 cm to 30 cm

(ii) 30 cm to 35 cm ✓

(i) 35 cm to 40 cm

(iv) 40 cm to 45 cm

(e) Nowadays the size of ballast used on Indian railway steel sleepers is

(i) 2.5 cm ✓

(ii) 3.8 cm

(iii) 4-5 cm

(iv) 5-0 cm

(f) To connect one pair of fishplates, the number of bolts used is

(i) 2

(ii) 4 ✓

(iii) 6

(iv) 8

(g) On Indian railways, max cant deficiency allowed on BG tracks is

(i) 56 mm

(ii) 66 mm

(iii) 75 mm

(iv) 87 mm

Correct Answer = 7.6 cm or 76mm

Concept:-

The actual cant provided on a railway track is based on the average speed of trains. However, in case of high speed trains cant requirement will be more that the actual value of cant provided so that train will be forced to move on a lower value of cant then maximum cant is required for high speed train. This deficiency in cant for high speed trains is called cant deficiency.  

The maximum permissible limit of cant deficiency is given below in tabulated form different type of railway gauges:



(h) The maximum gradient of BG in station yards is

(i) 1 in 1000

(ii) 1 in 400 ✓


(iii) 1 in 500

(iv) 1 in 200

(i) The thin edge of tongue rail is called as

(i)  heel

(ii) switch

(iii) toe ✓

(iv) None of the above

(j) Under the charge of a ganger, the track length is

(i) 1 km to 2 km

(ii) 3 km to 5 km ✓

(iii) 5 km to 6 km

(iv) 10 km to 15 km
