Fiery Steel: Rivals Joined By Rail

Railroads have been a major part of the development of our country since the 1820s. They were titans in American industry, largely due to the jobs that they provided. For railfans and historians, there were railroads that operated on the same lines in between major cities and freight ports.

But one thing that I always wondered was if different railroads truly had certain heat/beef with each other, with each one trying to find the next move that would put them above their rival?

Climb aboard for a journey back in time to when hundreds of miles of steel were the lifeblood and backbone of America. The question is will they unite to preserve their future or will the rifts between companies doom them before they know it?
