· The size of the ballast used in railway tracks varies from 1.9 cm to 5.1 cm. A stone of size larger than 5.1 cm is not preferable due to its poor interlocking property. The best-recommended ballast is that which contains stones ranging in size from 1.9 cm to 5.1 cm. The size of the ballast mainly depends upon the type of sleeper used and the
