Railroad is one of the symbols of the modern era. Railroads first appear in the early nineteenth century, and within a few decades, they completely transformed human life. The railroad evolved into one of the most important engines of the industrial revolution. It enabled the swift transfer of goods and labor between cities, thus contributing to the growth of the economy. Railroads supported the growth of the coal mining, iron production, engineering, and construction industries. The expansion of the railroad network also contributed to lower transaction costs, which in turn reduced the cost of goods. People's access to meat, milk, fish, and vegetables improved. The train became a symbol of a new way of life that offered greater mobility and choice.
