The Gadsden Purchase of 1853, was mainly designed to provide a good railroad route to California, to transport heavy items such as mining supplies. One eastern hub was thought to be New Orleans. Another hub could have been Charleston, South Carolina. Neither city was, as Omaha, Nebraska would be connected to Sacramento, California in 1869. The Gadsden Purchase was a waste of time and money.
