With the completion of the cross continental railroad combination of the Union Pacific Railroad and the Central Pacific Railroad in 1869, the railroad network of the U.S. was ready for spohistication west of the Mississippi River. The network east of the Mississippi River was rebuilding after the Civil War. This map focuses on the railroads in place in 1871. Railroads were most dense on the East Coast. As one traveled west the availability of connections diminished. The Kansas Pacific was notable in it connection of the mid-continent to the Union Pacific.
