What was the name of the cattle trail that stretched from Waco to Kansas City?

Through what Texas city did the Southern Pacific rail line pass?
From San Angelo heading west and north to Cheyenne, the Goodnight-Loving Trail passed through what fort? What town?
CRITICAL THINKING
How do you think these cattle trails and rail lines affected the later development of interstate highways?
Where do you think the major cattle markets and shipping centers were and why?
HELP ME !!!!

Chisholm Trail, 19th-century cattle drovers' trail in the western United States. Although its exact route is uncertain, it originated south of San Antonio, Texas, ran north across Oklahoma, and ended at Abilene, Kansas.

The Chisholm Trail was a trail used in the post-Civil War era to drive cattle overland from ranches in Texas to Kansas railheads. The trail was established by Black Beaver, a Lenape guide and rancher, and his friend Jesse Chisholm, a Cherokee merchant.
