Line 97: ===Railroad proposal=== When the [[~~First~~first transcontinental railroad]] was proposed in the 1850s, Atchison called for it to be built along the central route (from [[St. Louis, Missouri\|St. Louis]] through Missouri, Kansas, and [[Utah]]), rather than the southern route (from [[New Orleans, Louisiana\|New Orleans]] through Texas and [[New Mexico]]). Naturally, his suggested route went through Atchison. ==American Civil War==
