In 1825 on the Stockton to Darlington Railway, George Stephenson's Locomotion number 1 pulled the first fare paying passenger (and good) train.
There where previous experiments tried before that, but usually this is regarded as the first.
About 5 years later the Liverpool to Manchester Railway opened (George Stephenson again) and this began the first regular steam powered railway with stations etc, setting the foundation for the modern rail system.
