How did the US's transcontinental railroad affect the relations with Native American groups?
Occasionally the Native Indians would "harass" the railroad. The livestock would be shot at, stations terrorized, and work crews could be shot at. Twice Indians sabotaged the rails and also a Cheyenne raiding party tried to derail a train, killing g all the crewmen apart from one, who was scalped. Another tribe called Sioux tried and killed two crewmen. However one tribe, the Pawnee Indians, welcomed the train, protected it from the Sioux, and allowed a railroad to run on their land. In return they were given work on the trains.
