Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During the "to market era", merchandise and goods moved primarily by railroads and waterways. This was because railroads had expanded greatly during this era and provided an efficient and fast mode of transportation for goods. Waterways, such as rivers and canals, were also commonly used for transporting goods that could not be transported by rail or for shipping goods overseas.
