How did railroads create the four American time zones?
When the transcontinental railroad was completed in the 1860s, there was no standard time. Towns and cities used their own time and so did regional railroads, and this made for huge problems and hazards in establishing railroad timetables. It was nearly impossible to establish schedules, which not only made it difficult to establish arrivals and departures but also created a situation where trains running on different schedules could have costly and fatal collisions. So in 1883 at the behest of the railroad companies, the United States adopted a system of official time zones based on lines of longitude.
