I'm not sure what you mean by the advantage, but the Battle of the Wilderness was a tactical Confederate victory. The Federals were outmanoeuvered and their flanks were rolled up, and they lost 18000 men to the south's 8000.

How did the North's superior railroad system give it an advantage during the Civil War?

The North had a larger railway system than did the South. This however was not taken advantage of by Union forces early on in the war. In fact the South with a smaller railway system was able to use it to more advantage in moving troops internally from battle front to battle front. Supplies needed by the armies developed in the same manner with the South taken a greater advantage with. Later in the war, the Union forces made better use of their railways. In the area of sea transport, the North had a clear advantage. From the beginning of the war it was able to move troops and supplies along the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico coastlines.
