The correct answer is "D".

The Transcontinental Railroad is a network of railroads that connects the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic Coast of the United States. The first track was initially built in 1863 and concluded in 1869. The railroad lifted commerce among both shores in an unprecedented way and was also a way of transportation by which many people began settling out West.
