The process of moving cattle to shipping centers is referred to as "livestock transportation" and is often managed by freight management companies to ensure safe and efficient transit.
The cattle trails and railroads intersected in towns such as Abilene, Kansas; Dodge City, Kansas; and Cheyenne, Wyoming to form cattle shipping centers during the late 19th century. These towns became significant hubs for the cattle industry due to their accessible transportation networks for moving cattle to markets in the East.

Not what, but rather who. And that would be the cowhands that rounded up the cattle and drove them to the railway stockyards.
The herding of cattle from Texas to railroad centers to the north was called a cattle drive. Cattle drives took many months to complete. Some of the cowboys would drive the cattle to Kansas and not want to go back to the ranch after being paid. Then ranchers would have to hire more hands the next cattle drive season.
