Traveling through the countryside by train was once a part of the Jamaican experience for many. The rails cut through parishes to connect families, or even workers to their places of employment. Sadly, the rail service is no longer in existence. Attempts to revive it have seen life occasionally. The Jamaica Railway Corporation’s long history practically begs for a true rebirth. The Jamaican railway was the first in the British colonies.

The Early Years of the Jamaican Railway

The rail service in Jamaica was the brainchild of brothers, William and David Smith. The pair presented a proposal to Britain’s House of Assembly in 1843 for the development of a railway service in the British colony.
