Literature

The Panama Railroad, completed in 1855, was the first transcontinental railroad in the Americas, connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans across the Isthmus of Panama. It played a crucial role in facilitating travel and trade, particularly during the California Gold Rush. The railroad later became vital to the construction of the Panama Canal, though sections of the original route were moved during canal construction.
