A railway line transports freight over a distance of 500 km. The fixed cost per train trip is \(\text{₦}150,000\). The variable cost per ton‑kilometre is \(\text{₦}0.12\) for the first 1,000 tonnes of load. For each tonne above 1,000 tonnes, the variable cost per ton‑kilometre decreases by \(\text{₦}0.00002\) (but it cannot fall below \(\text{₦}0.08\)). Road transport has no fixed cost and a constant variable cost of \(\text{₦}0.25\) per ton‑kilometre. Determine the minimum whole‑tonne load that makes railway transport cheaper than road transport.
