Union and Central Pasific Railroad actually met in Promontory, Utah, on May 10 1869 to create the first Transcontinental Railroad.
The Central Pacific Railroad began in Council Buff, Nebraska. It did not begin in Omaha, that is a wrong fact. The railroad ended in Promontory, Utah. The Union Pacific started in Sacramento, California, and also ended in Promontory, Utah. They met at that place. Hope that helped (way to use the f****** internet for your homework btw)
no one "took over" the railroads at that time. Although there was railroad regulation, railroads remained mainly in the hands of private enterprise. There were many railroad lines till sometime in the middle of the 20th century. ie: Atchinson, Topeka, and Santa Fe, Union Pacific, New York Central, etc.
it was a railroad cross!ng the country making it much easier to expand west and help western cities grow
The railway ended in Canada for your advice read a book "Underground to Canada". It is good. I don't know were it started. I think it started in Lexington, Kentucky.
