Industry affected when Andrew Carnegie brought the bessemer process to us?

It affected the steel and railroad industry. Iron was the main foundation of railroads and when the Bessemer process created massed produced amounts of steel, the railroad industry greatly increased to. The carbon in the iron in the older railroads made the foundation of those railroads brittle and not as sturdy as steel, the steel became an asset to railroad creation. The Bessemer process burns off the carbon in the iron, thus creating steel. This process made steel cheaper, and the people of the steel industry were positively affected because the people in the railroad industry wanted the steel for better rails. The railroad industry was positively affected because now it was safer and stronger. They can earn more money because there are less accidents and can ship more at one time.
