All benefitted from the railroad industry, but Cornelius Vanderbilt is most closely associated with it, as he invested in railroads. Carnegie, Rockefeller and Duke made use of rail transport to move their products, while Vanderbilt owned the railroads.

Google their names.

Carnegie was the founder of Carnegie Steel Company.

Vanderbilt’s wealth was mostly associated with shipping and railroads.

Rockefeller founded an oil company.

And, Duke was a tobacco and electric power industrialists.

I’m going to have to go with A: Andrew Carnegie because his steel company gave way to some of the first railroads.

Victoria, I would have liked the way you answered this if you just hadn’t given the (A) in the end! LOL The questioner would then have had to figure it out for him/herself!

OK, to make this a proper answer: my answer is all of the above.
