The Pony Express was a B: communication network.

To arrive at this answer, you can make an educated guess by considering the name "Pony Express" and eliminating the options that are less likely.

- Option A: Trade route. This option can be eliminated because the name "Pony Express" does not imply trade or the transportation of goods.
- Option C: Railroad. This option can be eliminated because the Pony Express did not involve the use of trains or tracks.
- Option D: Native American trail. This option can be eliminated because the Pony Express was a system established by the American government and did not rely on Native American trails.

Therefore, the most logical choice is option B: communication network, as the name "Pony Express" suggests an organization or system for delivering messages or letters.
