History of rail transport in Finland
:''This article is part of the history of rail transport by country series''
The history of rail transport in Finland began on January 31, 1862, with the opening of the railway line between Helsinki and Hämeenlinna. By 1900 most of the future main lines had been constructed, including the line to St. Petersburg.〔(4rail.net - Reference - Finland - Railway History ) ''4rail.net''〕 By the time of the birth of the new Finnish Republic in 1917 lines connected all major cities, major ports, and reached as far as the Swedish border, and inner Finland as far north as Kontiomäki in Paltamo region, as well as eastwards into Karelia.
==Rail in the Grand Duchy of Finland==
In the 19th century Finland had an undeveloped primarily agricultural economy, the primary exports being forestry products, both timber and furs. Much of the transportation was conducted via waterways; Finland being a country of many lakes. However connecting the waterways system to the coast was problematic.〔 The use of a railway had already been considered in the 1840s; In 1849 Claes Alfred Stjernvall〔(Ylioppilasmatrikkeli 1640-1852 ) Claes Alfred Stjernvall ''www.helsinki.fi''〕 had suggested constructing a horse-drawn railway from Helsinki to Turkhauta〔("MIKSI TIKKURILAN ASEMASTA TULI NIIN KOMEA? : HELSINGIN-HÄMEENLINNAN RADAN ASEMIEN SYNTY osa I", JORMA UIMONEN, Helsingin Pitäjä, 1994, 66-79 ) ''www.valt.helsinki.fi''〕 (in the municipality of Janakkala)
