Justin Rivera · Answer 2

Option: A. Union Pacific

Explanation:

The Union Pacific railroad company was responsible for building tracks in the westward of the United States. The Union Pacific railroad became legal company after entering into an act called Pacific Railroad Act of 1862 by president Abraham Lincoln. The Union Pacific built its tracks in the West, which allowed people to travel in railroad without travelling in dangerous wagon coaches. It connected the West to the East, and it lost its wilderness as people began to move to start a new life.
