Northern transportation industries boomed during the conflict as well-particularly railroads. The North's larger number of track

s
and better ability to construct and move parts gave it a distinct advantage over the South. Union forces moving south or west to
fight often rode to battle on trains traveling on freshly lain tracks. In fact, as Northern forces traveled further south to fight and
occupy the Confederacy, the War Department created the United States Military Railroads, designed to build rails to carry troops
and supplies as well as operating captured Southern rail lines and equipment. By war's end, it was the world's largest railroad
system.
--National Park Service, "Industry and Economy during the Civil War"
