| Title |
The Montreal & Lachine Rail Road and its Successors
|
| Abstract |
The Montreal & Lachine Rail Road was an eight-mile long line from the downtown Montreal to the suburban town of Lachine, built in 1847 by James Ferrier (1800-1888). The train made six round-trips a day, twenty minutes from Montreal to Lachine with a ten minute stop-over before returning to the city. The author claims this was Canada's first "rapid transit" system.
