My Memory is Growing Dim

I was thinking of the railways, the railroad, rolling-stock. I was trying to remember things; perhaps I never Knew. I know that for a time I was a brakeman for the SP. Please help me.

Who owns the cross country railways? Who owned the land into which the golden spike was driven? I thought it belonged to us, the people. I thought 99 year leases long, but not a transfer of ownership? Didn't honest Abe start the railroads with the people's money? Do I have it all wrong?
