More stagecoaches.
Mail service to the South was disrupted from 1861 when the Butterfield Overland Mail Ox Bow Route was suspended and did not get going strong again until about 1867. During that period, however, stages continued to carry mail from St. Louis to California along the Butterfield Dispatch Route through Kansas, Colorado and Utah.
Completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1869 made railroad the main transcontinental mail carrier. However, stagecoaches still served communities off the main rail line for mail and freight delivery. The coaches would pick up at the rail depots and further disperse the freight, mail and passengers to smaller communities.
The expansion of the railroads throughout the United States from about 1881 forward made the stagecoach a less necessary conveyance coming into the turn of the 20th Century. Reportedly, the last operational stage line in the United States served Tucson to Chandler AZ until after WWI.
