The railroad helped the economy grow by providing a way to transport good from one area to another. Cotton grown in the South could be shipped to textiles mills that would then make clothes and ship them anywhere in the country for sale. Maple syrup from Vermont, which would have been hard to find on the West Coast prior to the railroad, could be shipped to customers anywhere. Before the railroad, those cotton growers & syrup makers could only sell their goods in the immediate area around them. Once there was an efficient means of transportation, the merchant in Vermont could do business, and make money, from people on the West Coast. Trains also provided easy transportation for people to move from one part of the country to another to find better jobs.
