Answer: it provided 6,400 acres of land for each mile of track laid.

The Pacific Railroad Act was a law which primary objective was to create a transcontinental railroad.  To accomplish this, railroads companies were given <em>government bonds</em> as well as <em>grants of land</em> to work with.

Sections 2 and 3 of the Act, established the acquisition of rights of way, to the Company that laid the tracks.

The first one, conceded <em>both the rail itself and 200 ft of public land away from it, for each side.</em> The second one, <em>added 10 square miles to the prior,</em> whenever the rails were not crossing rivers or went through cities.

This was specified in the Act with the <u>following phrase:</u> <em>"five alternate sections per mile on each side of said railroad, on the line thereof, and within the limits of ten miles on each side"</em>.

On the other hand, loans from $16000 per mile of flat prairie railroad were authorized up to $48000 when companies worked in a mountain.
