What does the phrase 'Railroads in juxtaposition' describe?

• A. Two or more lines of track built on the same bank of earth
• B. A single line of track
• C. An abandoned railroad
• D. A mine dump

Answer: (A)

The phrase describes parallel railroad tracks, placed side by side along the same earthen embankment. Juxtaposition here means two or more lines of track that run next to each other and share the same bank of earth, rather than a single line or something unrelated. That’s why it points to multiple tracks built on the same embankment. The other options describe a single track, an unused/abandoned line, or something like a mine dump, none of which involve multiple tracks side by side.
