Additional Details:
It was a great day on May 15, 1851 when the New York and Erie Railroad, now the Erie Railroad, completed its first run from Piermont, NY, on the Hudson River to Dunkirk, NY, on Lake Eire. It was the longest railroad in the United States - 446 miles long - and an important milestone in American history.
