Die Granite Railway (dt. Granitbahn) war eine der allerersten Bahnstrecken in den USA. Sie wurde erbaut, um Granit aus den Steinbrüchen von Quincy in Massachusetts zur Baustelle des Bunker Hill Monuments in Charlestown zu transportieren. Der Betrieb wurde am 7. Oktober 1826 aufgenommen, die Streckenlänge betrug ca. 4,8 Kilometer. Obwohl in England bereits Dampflokomotiven verkehrten, wurden hier zunächst Pferde zum Ziehen der Waggons eingesetzt, die Gefällestrecke wurde mit Schwerkraft überbrückt. Später wurden auch Lokomotiven eingesetzt. Neben der Belieferung der Monumentbaustelle wurde auf dieser Bahn Granit in den Bostoner Hafen zur Verschiffung und zum Bau des Leuchtturms Minot’s Ledge an der Hafeneinfahrt transportiert. 1963 wurde der letzte Steinbruch in Quincy stillgelegt. Am 15. Oktober 1973 wurde die Bahn als Quincy Granite Railway unter der Nummer 73000309 in das National Register of Historic Places aufgenommen. Am 19. Juni desselben Jahres folgte ein gesonderter Eintrag für das abgebildete Steigungssegment unter der Nummer 73000310. (de) The Granite Railway was one of the first railroads in the United States, built to carry granite from Quincy, Massachusetts, to a dock on the Neponset River in Milton. From there boats carried the heavy stone to Charlestown for construction of the Bunker Hill Monument. The Granite Railway is popularly termed the first commercial railroad in the United States, as it was the first chartered railway to evolve into a common carrier without an intervening closure. The last active quarry closed in 1963; in 1985, the Metropolitan District Commission purchased 22 acres (8.9 ha), including Granite Railway Quarry, as the Quincy Quarries Reservation. (en) グラニット鉄道（英語: Granite Railway）は、アメリカ合衆国でも最初期の鉄道で、花崗岩をマサチューセッツ州のクインシーからのに面したドックまで輸送するために建設された。そこからはチャールズタウンまで船を使って運ばれ、バンカーヒル記念塔に用いられた。グラニット鉄道は特に制約なくとして運行できる最初の特許を得た鉄道であるため、アメリカ合衆国で最初の商用鉄道であるとしばしば称される。最後の採石場は1963年に閉鎖となり、1985年に都市圏委員会がグラニット鉄道を含む22エーカー（約89,000平方メートル）の土地をとして買収した。 (ja) |
