10 May 1869 - GOLDEN SPIKE COMPLETES TRANSCONTINENTAL RAILROAD: A
ceremonial golden spike and the official telegraph message 'DONE' mark
the end of six years of labor on a massive scale that included about
20,000 Chinese workers, as the US transcontinental railroad is
completed. Once a half-year's journey, the trip from one coast of North
America to the other now takes about a week.
