Answer:

The answer is C "It made railroad travel faster than ship travel between the Great Lakes and Hudson River

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because while it did cost a lot, it did not lead to an economic depression.

While it may have caused minor damage to beaver dams, it is not the most correct and proven answer

It actually linked the city with the Great Lakes, but it did not concentrate the goods, only helped transport them

I hope this helps!!!

:)

Bye bye have a great day <3
