The first transcontinental railroad in the United States was completed in 1869 and was primarily composed of two major rail lines: the Central Pacific Railroad, which started in Sacramento, California, and the Union Pacific Railroad, which began in Omaha, Nebraska. These two lines met at Promontory Summit in Utah, marking a significant milestone in transportation and facilitating westward expansion.
