This print captures a momentous occasion in American history - the arrival of the First American Train. On July 31, 1832, this remarkable locomotive made its way along the tracks from Albany to Schenectady, marking a significant milestone in the development of railway transport in the United States.
Imported from England, this pioneering train was constructed with precision and care, showcasing cutting-edge technology at the time.
