Texas ranchers grouped their cattle into herds and marched them across the countryside to get to the railroad to be shipped east or west. This was called a cattle drive and needed about 4 or more people on horseback to control where the cattle went.
Cattle moved from Texas to Northern cities
The transcontinental railroad stopped in Abilene so ran hers could import the cows by rail to the final destination.
Many were from Massachusetts and New York. They had moved to help build the Railroad.
They began where the cattle were bred and raised and were moved to the nearest town on the rail lines. Many cattlemen lived in the states of Texas and Oklahoma and for a time the nearest rail stop was Abeliene, Kansas.

cattle farming was too expensive so they moved out to the plains for crop farming. there they had trouble with high interest in the banks, unfair railroad fees, and overproduction from other farmers
There was no underground railroad in other countries. The underground railroad was not a real railroad, but one that was a series of stops that moved escaped slaves north.

Because of the establishment of the railroad: These transcontinental railroads reduced the time that it took to travel across the U. S. A. from weeks to days. And finally cattle ranchers in Texas saw a way to make a lot of money. They could feed cattle cheaply on the grasslands. And with the new railroads they could transport the cattle to eastern cites where people were hungry for meat. In the years after the Civil War, cattle owners hired men called cowboys to drive their cattle north to the railroads. The cattle traveled along regular routes called trails. At the start the cowboys moved the herds quickly, but then they slowed down. It was very important to give the cattle a lot of time to graze, because they should be as heavy as possible when they were sold. Where the cattle trails met the railroads new towns grew up. This way more and more towns began to exist.
If you mean the people being sent to concentration camps then they were moved by train in cattle carts.
That way cattle could be moved from one side of the country to the other end.
