President Abraham Lincoln made it a priority to complete the transcontinental railroad. He signed the Pacific Railway Act in 1862, which provided federal support for the construction of the railroad. Lincoln believed that the railroad would promote westward expansion, economic growth, and national unity, especially during the Civil War era. The completion of the railroad in 1869 significantly transformed transportation and commerce in the United States.

In the 1840s, the main argument in Congress over the transcontinental railroad centered on the routes and the political implications of its construction. Disputes arose primarily between Northern and Southern lawmakers regarding whether the railroad should run through free states or slave states, reflecting broader sectional tensions. Additionally, issues of federal land grants and funding for the project were contentious topics, as different regions sought to secure economic benefits from the railroad's construction. This debate foreshadowed the growing divide between North and South leading up to the Civil War.

The Civil War significantly impacted the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad by accelerating its need and urgency. During the war, the U.S. government recognized the importance of a unified transportation network for military and economic purposes, which led to increased federal support and funding for the project. Additionally, the conflict diverted resources and labor away from other projects, ultimately streamlining efforts to complete the railroad after the war ended in 1865. The completion of the railroad in 1869 facilitated westward expansion and helped integrate the national economy.
