What ethnic group was largely responsible for buliding most of the railroad in the US West?
The Chinese immigrant community was largely responsible for building much of the railroad in the U.S. West, particularly the Central Pacific Railroad. They played a crucial role in overcoming the challenging terrain of the Sierra Nevada and faced significant discrimination and hardships during their work. Despite their contributions, they were often marginalized and denied recognition for their efforts in the construction of the transcontinental railroad.

The Union Pacific workers were mostly American. It was easy for them because they had all their resources on the same continent, unlike the others who had to import from China.
