1850s
The growth of railroads in the 1800s did not result in the immediate decline of urban populations; rather, it often facilitated urbanization by connecting rural areas to cities. While railroads boosted industrial growth and expanded trade, they did not eliminate the need for other forms of transportation, such as canals and roads. Additionally, the railroads did not lead to the instant democratization of travel, as access was often limited to those who could afford it.
