B. Establishing a successful restaurant chain built along major rail lines.

Harvey emigrated from Liverpool, Eng., to New York City in 1850 and began working in restaurants there and in New Orleans. ... As his chain of Harvey House restaurants became famous for their appetizing cuisine, Harvey began establishing a series of clean, efficient hotels and then a string of railroad dining cars.
