Answer:

Answered below

Explanation:

Railroads played a huge role in the development of western cities, Washington included. I'm Washington, before the railroads, travel between America's coasts by land or by sailing, took months.

In 1864, Congress approved the development of the northern Pacific railroad and awarded grants and lands to builders. In 1872, Seattle offered the northern Pacific, acres of land and bonds to continue developing the railroad.

The building of the transcontinental railroad opened up the west coast to a very fast-paced development. With its completion, travel time was cut from months to weeks. The economic impact of connecting two American coasts was enormous and industries flourished.
