What was one negative effect of the railroad during westward expansion?
North and Souh disagreed about the proposed route of the first coast-to-coast railroad. The North wanted it to go via Chicago. The South wanted it to go via New Mexico. As the North was more powerful in Congress, it would obviously go via Chicago. But in order to get the South to agree to chip-in for the costs, they had to make a gesture of appeasementin the form of the Kansas-Nebraska Act. This gave the people of each new state the rightto vote whether it should be slave or free - allowing the possibility of new slave-states. The South agreed to this. But the Act carried a fatal flaw. Only one state at a time would be voting. This was a magnet for every terrorist to cross into that one state to try to intimidate voters. The ensuing bloodshed was called 'Bleeding Kansas', and it convinced America that the slave debate would never be resolved except through combat.
