Question

How did the great northern railroad become the most successful transcontinental railroads without restoring to corruption

Answer 1

The railroads have been unregulated and despised by farmers who had dealt with them. The collective movement of ranchers and farmers bringing the railroad industry was under different regulations. The early attempts for the state to prevent the railroad was not successful because of the interstate commerce that had been implemented by the state government

The biggest challenge with the railroad is that they had charged high rates for shorter distances which were not favorable to the farmers hence making it hard moving from a station to another.
