Infographic created for my blog, IRideTheHarlemLine.com, on the 180th birthday of the New York & Harlem Railroad. Much of the early history of the railroad is unknown, despite the fact that it was the first railroad in New York City, and one of the earliest street railroads in the world. Several years before steam engines came to the line, the first train cars were pulled by horses.
