National Geographic's new America's Railroad Heritage Map illustrates the many ways railroads have impacted the nation and shaped people's daily lives. From the creation of the time zones still in use today to contributions to the country's economic and industrial development, America's railroad heritage is intertwined with the growth of the United States in the 19th and 20th centuries and into the century to come. The map depicts the routes of today's seven major Class 1 railroads, Amtrak's passenger routes, as well as those of the more than 100 Class 1 railroads that existed in 1920, when 5 percent of the nation's workforce—more than 2 million people—were employed by these lines.
