First published in October 1904 by the Interborough Rapid Transit Corporation, the company that built New York's first underground railway, this unique facsimile edition is a lavishly illustrated guide to one of the century's greatest engineering feats. Here, in twelve detailed chapters, are the routes, stations, and tracks, the rolling stock, signal systems, and electric supply stations of the new subway that ran under the streets of Manhattan and the Bronx. Beautifully reproduced photographs, maps, line drawings, and other illustrations complement the text, written by the IRT's own engineers.
