Opening of New York City's subway system in Manhattan
Source Notes
Shelley Ackerman quotes a New York Times editorial page on 10/27/2004: " It was exactly 2:35:30 p.m., Oct. 27, 1904. Mayor George McClellan was at the controls of New York City's very first subway train and throttled the amazing mechanism into motion in a station deep beneath City Hall while above ground, church bells chimed, factory whistles blew, boat horns sounded and crowds cheered"
