____________ are transported by rail every day.
Reading text: The public transport system is essential for city life, and is the main means of transport in urban India. The main forms of public transport are small motor vehicles, buses and railways. Cycle rickshaws (a type of small, cycle-powered taxi) are also common in smaller cities.

Indian trains carry over 30 million passengers and 2.8 million tonnes of freight daily. Indian Railways are the world’s biggest employer, with over 1.4 million staff.
