Abstract
A phenomenon of railway transport is from the beginning of its birth closely connected with the industrial production. The turn of the 18th and 19th century is at the same time a period of the birth of the modern railway on the European continent and a period of the most important technological development in the industrial production. It is commonly denoted as the first industrial revolution and is connected both in the case of industry and railway transport with the invention of the steam engine and with its gradual introduction into practice. Despite the oldest efforts to use railways in industry can be found in Englands coal mines, Central Europe, and especially the Czech lands, belong to the pioneering regions in the historical context of the railway and industry development on the continent (e.g. horse-driven railway České Budějovice-Linec). The aim of this article is to present historical-geographical context of the railway and industry development and their mutual benefits at the model examples of the regions of the Czech Republic.
