This book offers a comprehensive geographical analysis of the railway transport system in Tripura, a strategically located yet infrastructurally challenged state in Northeast India. Drawing on empirical data and spatial assessments, it investigates the historical evolution, current limitations, and development potential of railway networks in the region. With its geopolitical proximity to Bangladesh and Southeast Asia, Tripura is explored as a crucial frontier for regional integration. The volume addresses themes such as infrastructural externalities, regional disparities, railway diplomacy, and demand-oriented service planning. While contributing to academic discourse, it also provides actionable insights for policymakers, infrastructure planners, and scholars of transport geography. The study incorporates international comparisons, offering a broader context for local development issues. Its target audience is geographers, urban planners, infrastructure policymakers, transport economists, and regional development researchers.
