The Henry Flagler Overseas Railroad operated from 1912 to 1935 -- one of the great engineering challenges on the planet. Key West is at the western end of a long series of islands called the Florida Keys. Even to this day, building railroads on oceans is still very difficult, and that is why it wasn't rebuilt in this hurricane-prone region.
The transcontinental railroad is 690 miles long.
40 miles
I am thinking it is 10 years. If you want to research it yourself go to www.rrb.gov and look on the Railroad Retirement Boards website.

Henry Flagler was the founder of the city of Palm Beach, Florida. He also founded the Florida East Coast Railway and was named the father of Miami, Florida.
It took 6 years to build the transcontinental railroad which was through the years of 1863 from May 10th to the year 1869. Some say 20 years. Overland route came after.
The transcontinental railroad is 690 miles long.
are trains running on long island railroad
