Explanation:

The construction of the railroad brought a lot of benefits to the country, and in particular to those living West. However, the companies that built the railroads also benefitted from this significantly. The Central Pacific and Union Pacific railroad companies were responsible for creating a monopoly when it came to railroads. This allowed them to control the whole market, and thus the prices they implemented. By continually raising prices, these companies were able to make a large profit.
