In what way did railroad the nations economy grow

Railroads helped the nations economy grow tremendously. It changed the entire Industrial revolution and made it more easier.

Rail roads helped the economy grow by:

-Transporting goods

-Use of transportation to and from places

-Rise the demand for materials

Explanations:

The reason why rail roads helped the U.S economy was by transporting goods. Trains could carry tons of things in it and in a easily fashion, which made it easier to get things around. Trains helped businesses gets supplies around and made it less complicated. If there were no trains, the industry's during that time would be in a struggle because it would be complicated to transport things throughout the country.

Another reason why rail roads helped the U.S economy was by making it a reliable source of transportation. Before trains were invented, people used horses to travel from place to place, and that takes a very long time and is very exhausting. Trains solved the problem of transportation. Trains could carry many passengers and could take them to a certain destination as quickly as possible, while being safe.

Another reason why rail roads helped the U.S economy was by making the demands for certain materials rise. Materials like steel and wood were in very high demand because people needed a lot of quantities of steel and wood to make the rail road tracks. People sold wood and steel for a high price, which helped the economy a lot.

                the united states presidential election of 1912 was the 32nd quadrennial presidential election, held on tuesday, november 5, 1912. the election was a rare four-way contest.

                incumbent president william howard taft was renominated by the republican party with the support of its conservative wing. after former president theodore roosevelt failed to receive the republican nomination, he called his own convention and created the progressive party (nicknamed the "bull moose party"). it nominated roosevelt and ran candidates for other offices in major states. democrat woodrow wilson was finally nominated on the 46th ballot of a contentious convention, to the support of william jennings bryan, the three-time democratic presidential candidate who still had a large and loyal following in 1912. eugene v. debs, running for a fourth time, was the nominee of the socialist party of america.

                wilson won the election, gaining a large majority in the electoral college and winning 42% of the popular vote, while roosevelt won 27%, taft 23% and debs 6%. wilson became the only elected president from the democratic party between 1892 and 1932, and the second of only two democrats to be elected president between 1860 and 1932. this was the last election in which a candidate who was not a republican or democrat came second in either the popular vote or the electoral college, and the first election in which all 48 states of the contiguous united states participated.
