I would have said that would have been the Northern Pacific (the Yellowstone Route) or the Colorado Southern (Burlington) which aren't even in the list. So I'll guess the railroad that got within stage coach range from the south in 1872.

But then again three of the other roads listed don't get anywhere even close to the park.
