Yeah! I agree with your answer. Nice job. Railroads basically were THE keypoint to national business and economic growth. Eliminating the needs for long and weary trips, while also founding and fueling other soon-to-be huge business industries, such as iron, coal, copper, machinery, etc., railroads made "rapid movement of produce and goods into many markets possible."
