How did the growth of the railroad help the cattle industry
Definition1/3

Refrigerated railroad cars could take the processed meat to the East.

Actually the railroads enabled ranchers to drive their cattle shorter distances to the trains that came to their most local cow-town.

The railroads allowed cattle to be transported long distances, quickly and efficiently to distant markets. This meant that herding of cattle on foot over long distances, using much man power, would eventually be consigned to the western cowboy movies.
