Central Pacific & Union Pacific.
The Union Pacific Railroad depended heavily on immigrants from Ireland and China for labor during its construction in the mid-19th century. These immigrant workers played a crucial role in laying tracks and building the railroad across the United States.
The amount of time that it can take to lay a mile of railroad tracks can depend upon several factors. Some of these factors include speed of the workers laying the track and how many workers are laying the track. A record was set in 1869 when a group laid 10 miles of track in less than one day.
