It had a brief existence of only sixteen months and was supplanted by the transcontinental telegraph. Yet it was of the greatest

importance in binding the East and West together at a time when overland travel was slow and cumbersome, and when a great national crisis made the rapid communication of news between these sections an imperative necessity.
Which of the following BEST summarizes the main message of these lines?

The Pony Express was invaluable during the national crisis
The Pony Express was all that was available during the national crisis
The transcontinental telegraph replaced the Pony Express (i think this is right)
The transcontinental telegraph would have been more effective (doubt this is right)

The answer is The Pony Express was invaluable during the national crisis. 
Pony Express started in the 1800s when three men had put up a mail delivery system that would reach from Midwest to California. The design of the system connected a number of over one hundred stations, each almost two hundred forty miles long, across the country. It had given a needed service but it was never quite the financial success it was envisioned to be.
