What was the railroad mileage across the US increased by how much from 1850 to 1890?
From 1850 to 1890, the railroad mileage in the United States increased significantly, growing from approximately 9,000 miles to over 163,000 miles. This remarkable expansion was driven by industrial growth, the westward movement of settlers, and advancements in technology. The completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1869 was a pivotal moment that further accelerated this growth. Overall, the increase in railroad mileage during this period was about 154,000 miles.
What role did the railroad companies play in attracting Europeans to the West?
* From 1850-1870 the US government gave millions of acres of public land to railroad companies to encourage them to build more rail. * To make more money the railroad companies resold much of that land to settlers. * They sent land agents to Europe to advertise the idea of settling on the Great Plains, and to buy the land from the Railroad companies. Their pamphlets proclaimed "Land for the Landless, Homes for the Homeless!" * Land sales made the railroad companies rich and supplied new customers for railroad services
