The transcontinental railroad was primarily made possible through the efforts of key figures such as President Abraham Lincoln, who signed the Pacific Railway Act in 1862, facilitating its construction. The project was undertaken by two main companies: the Central Pacific Railroad, which built eastward from California, and the Union Pacific Railroad, which built westward from Nebraska. Their collaboration and the labor of thousands, including immigrant workers, ultimately led to the completion of the railroad in 1869.

i am not sure
The construction of the transcontinental railroad was primarily driven by key figures such as President Abraham Lincoln, who signed the Pacific Railway Act in 1862, and influential railroad magnates like Leland Stanford, Collis Potter Huntington, and Charles Crocker. These leaders spearheaded the Central Pacific and Union Pacific railroads, coordinating efforts to connect the eastern and western United States. Their commitment, along with significant federal support, ensured the railroad's completion in 1869.

Started in Britain in the 1700s! No one knows for sure because it was so large scale that its hard to tell!
