Answer:

  • completion of the Northern Pacific Railroad

Explanation:

The construction of the Northern Pacific Railroad started in 1870 and the fundamental line opened right from the Great Lakes to the Pacific when previous President Ulysses S. Concede drove in the last "brilliant spike" in western Montana on September 8, 1883. The railroad had around 6,800 miles (10,900 km) of track and served an enormous zone, incorporating broad trackage in the conditions of Idaho, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, Washington, and Wisconsin. Furthermore, the NP had a worldwide branch to Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. The principle exercises were shipping wheat and other ranch items, dairy cattle, timber, and minerals; getting shopper products, transporting travelers; and selling land.  

The Northern Pacific was headquartered in Minnesota, first in Brainerd, at that point in Saint Paul. It had a turbulent budgetary history; the NP converged with different lines in 1970 to shape the Burlington Northern Railroad, which progressed toward becoming BNSF Railway in 1996.
