    The document discusses the history and development of railroads in the United States between 1830 and 1890. It notes that the first commercial railroad opened in 1830 in Massachusetts to transport freight and passengers. The railroad system expanded rapidly over the following decades, growing from 23,000 miles of track in 1850 to nearly 164,000 miles by 1890 as more railroads were built to connect major cities and regions across the country. Railroads transformed the US economy and linked previously isolated areas during this time period.
