Railroads primarily benefited industrialists and businesses by facilitating the efficient transport of goods and raw materials, which spurred economic growth. They also provided jobs and boosted local economies, particularly in towns along the rail lines. Additionally, settlers and homesteaders gained access to new lands and markets, enabling westward expansion. Finally, the railroads significantly aided the movement of military supplies and troops, benefiting national defense.
