Did the transcontinental railroad cross the US?
Not really, despite its name. The first "transcontinental railroad" ran only from Omaha, Nebraska on the eastern end to San Francisco, California on its western end. Omaha, on the western bank of the Missouri River, is about 1,200 miles from the East Coast of the United States. However, there was already a network of railroads east of the Missouri River, so that after completion of the transcontinental railroad, someone could travel from the East Coast to San Francisco by railroad with only one interruption: a ferry across the Missouri River.
