NEW YoRK's FIRST RAILROAD.
The Wonderful Improvements That Have
Been Made in Half n Century.

1t is less than fifty years since the first railroad
was built in this State. On the29th day ofJuly, 1s0,
ground was broken for the construction of line
by theMohawk and HudsonR ailroadC ompanythat
had been incorporated by an act of the Legisla-
ture on the 18th day of April, 1s26 Ii was FORM
ed for the purpose of constructing single OF
double railroad or way between the Mohawk and
Hudson Rivers, commencing from the Hudson
River at any point within the bounds of the city
of Albany, or within half mile west of the
same, TO transport, take, and carry property and
persons upon the same by the power and force of
steam, of animals, of any mechanical or other
power, or of any combination of them, which
the said corporation may choose to employ
About the 10th of July, 1851, twelve and one
half miles of the road had been completed, and
on the 9th of the same month a locomotive, the
DE Witt Clinton, was placed upon the track. 1t
was built by the West Point foundry. Another
locomotive had been ordered from Stephenson,
of England, which was placed upon the road on
the 18th of September. A trial of the first loco
motive was not successful Ii was found defec-
tive in the capacity of the boiler, and portions
had TO be returned to the foundry for improve
ment. The road was formally opened by grand
excursion the line on the oath of September,
1881 Just as the company was about to start,
the feed pipe of the English locomotive, the Rob-
ert Fulton, broke, and horses were substituted
to carry them. The train consisted of two ears.
The three cars composing the other train were
drawn by the De Witt Clinton. The locomotive
made the return trip with all five ears in thirty
five minutes.
The completion of this road was accomplished
in the spring of lSs2, the ears first used being
coach bodies placed upon trucks and supported
by thorough braces, in the manner of stages.
The terminus ut Albany and Schenectady were
inclined planes worked by stationary engines,
and the ears were drawn up by means of a large
rope, and balanced by means of a car loaded
with stone descending the opposite track. This
road was the first built in this State, and is now
part of the New York Central and Hudson Riv-
er Railroad.
The State Engineers report shows that at the
end of the fiscal year, Sept. 80, 1879, there were
2sS railroad companies that had roads in this
State, representing capital of S46l $50 AS, and
earning revenue of sl06, 592, 939.-NeT York
