POINT HAS GOOD
TRANSPORTATION
Bayside City Had First Rail-
road in 1883 - Had
Steamer Line
WAS FOUNDED IN 174O

Reviewing the commercial de-
velopment of somers Point, it is
found that although the city has
not made any extensive adyertis-
ing campaigns until late, its
growth has been well, considering
the lack of transportation methods.
Somers Point was founded in 1740.
but it was not until over a hun
dred years later that it had any
means of conveyance other than
horses and stages.
In 1883 Walter Massie, who was
operating the narrow gauge rail
road into Atlantic City. was induced
by Captain John Townsend, Harry
Van SAINT and others. to build a
spur of the railroad into that city.
When this venture proved success
full. other interests began 10 take
notice. A small steamer line was
inaugurated between Somers Point
and Ocean City. Another line was
operated between there and Long
port. This was run by the Penn
sylyania Railroad.
