Question

How did the railroads react to state governments’ legislation during the Gilded Age?

Answer 1

Railroads approved greatly of the state governments' legislation during the gilded age. For example, one of the biggest pieces of legislation regarded the rules surround eminent domain. This essentially meant that anyone was able to get private ownership of any land for as little money as possible. This meant that the railroads were able to build and develop on land that they had got either for free, or that they had paid very little for.
