Pros: Some of the pros of the railroads was that they made a safer route across the country. Second they also ran all year round. And third it saved people money on more insurance and the cost of the transportation.
Cons: One of the cons of the railroads is that you weren't allowed to bring everything you wanted to on the train. This is so they didn't have to cost the people as much because with the goods it puts on more weight and takes more fuel. |
