  56. Mining and railroad construction affected development in the west by making travel easier and quicker while mining led to people finding gold. Finding gold in places like San Francisco made many more people move there, and trains allowed the move there to be much simpler and faster than it once was, being that the railroad and train were built to go from coast to coast.

  62. (Avi Ni) Railroads helps people travel to other places faster(it kills time). ranches are made to herd animals and thus get more meat for the settlers to use. mining helps other people get more money since they're mining things like gold and other useful/valuable resources. it helps them go through hard times.

    (Seewing Zheng) I agree to what Avi said.Railroads help people get to other places and transport goods much faster.Ranches also help people kill time and settlers can have plenty of food. Mining is a job and it can help you find gold and other valuable items but mining can be very dangerous.
