Re: growth of the railroads

This is the part I don't understand. Can someone explain? How is determined parallel with differing? Also the local times are now abolished so why will we use present tense?

"which were determined

is parallel with

which differed

These two parts are adjective clauses and can be "reduced" such that they become adjective phrases (or participial phrases in this particular case):

determined

is still parallel with

differing"
