Great Northern
The transcontinental railroad was built by the Union Pacific Railroad going west from Omaha, Nebraska. They built their part of the railroad to Promontory, Utah. The Central Pacific Railroad built the other part of the transcontinental railroad starting in Sacramento, California and built east meeting the Union Pacific Railroad.
The Great Northern Railway (GNR) operated without any government subsidies or land grants and was the only transcontinental railroad that was not forced into bankruptcy. It was primarily built by James J. Hill and his associates, who focused on cost-effective construction methods and efficient management. Despite facing challenges and competition, the Great Northern Railway became the most successful transcontinental railroad in the United States.
