History (German) |
Collis Potter Huntington (1821 - 1900) gilt neben Leland Standford, Charles Crocker und Mark Hopkins als einer der Big Four of California, die mit der Central Pacific Railroad den wesentlichen Teil der Transcontinentalen Eisenbahn bauten. Nach Abschluss dieses Projektes wandte sich Huntington der Idee einer südlichen Ost-West-Verbindung zu und gründete dafür die Southern Pacific Railroad. Zusammen mit Leland Standford war Huntington eindeutig der aktivste der Big Four. | ||||||||||||
