Another reason is because it offered a form of transportation (long or short) that was much faster than foot or horseback. Railroads acted as a means of transportation to and from work, for example. It also presented the option of long-range migrating for people. This helped the population of cities grow in Europe and the US.

These modes of transportation were essential for both passenger travel and the movement of goods and materials. The development of canals and early railroads in the early 19th century began to shift the dominant form of transportation towards more efficient and faster means of travel.
