History of rail transport in Haiti : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of rail transport in Haiti :''This article is part of the history of rail transport by country series'' The history of rail transport in Haiti began in 1876, with the opening of a horse drawn street tramway. Rural railways were constructed later. Haiti has never had any rail connections with the neighbouring Dominican Republic. All rail transport in Haiti had ceased operating by about the 1970s. ==Horse tramways== In 1876, a franchise for the construction of a street railway in Port-au-Prince was awarded to a group of New York City financiers. They founded the Compagnie des Chemins de Fer de Port-au-Prince (CCFPP). Six open cars were ordered from J. G. Brill and Company of Philadelphia in 1877 and a tramway service connecting Croix des Bossales with Champ de Mars began in 1878. The venture was initially successful but was hit by competition from buses from 1880. The CCFPP went bankrupt in 1885 and the last tram ran in 1888.〔http://www.tramz.com/ht/ppe.html〕
