Who are immigrants to help build the Transcontinental Railroad?

Immigrants who helped build the Transcontinental Railroad primarily included large numbers of Chinese laborers, especially in the western sections of the project, as well as Irish immigrants who worked on the eastern parts. These workers faced harsh conditions, long hours, and significant dangers, but their labor was crucial to the completion of the railroad in 1869. The contributions of these immigrant groups were instrumental in linking the eastern and western United States, facilitating commerce and migration.
