About this episode
The Transcontinental Railroad was an engineering feat unprecedented at the time, and it had to be built by hand. May 10th is the 157th anniversary of its completion. In the 21st century, we are still reaping the benefits of the back-breaking and dangerous work our ancestors accomplished. In the aftermath of the Civil War, it helped bring our country back together again.
