Solution

The correct option is D Railways
Railways was the new means of transportation that was available throughout the year. It was both cheap and fast and it could carry passengers and goods. They combined two inventions; the iron track replaced the wooden track in the 1760s, and the power of the steam engine. Thus, the invention of railways took the process of industrialisation to its second stage.
