What did the railroad strike of 1877 and the homestead strike of 1892 have in common?

The correct answer is Government troops helped put down both strikes

Explanation:

The fact that government troops had to be called in to end both strikes is perhaps one of the only commonality between both these incidents.

The Great Railroad Strike began on the 14th of July 1877 as the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad has reduced the wages of it's workers for three consecutive years.

The Strike started in Martinsburg but quickly spread to New York, Illinois, Maryland etc. After 45 days, the strike ended as local militias and government troops were brought in. At the end, over a 100 people lost their lives.

The Homestead Strike began in June 1892 when workers protested to the reduced wages being proposed by the Carnegie Steel Company in the town of Homestead. The strike was proposed by a Union and the manager of the steel plant was determined to end it. Eventually, the company hired detectives to protect the plant and an armed battle began.

Government troops were eventually called in and the strike was broken.
