To solve the problem of
congestion of traffic, the first underground train
opened on 10th January 1863 between Paddington
and Farrington Street in London. 10,000 passengers
here carried on that day.
Underground trains, though objects of cynicism
in the beginning, partially solved housing crisis by
carrying large masses to and from the city to the
suburbs.
By the 20th century, most large cities like New York,
Tokyo, Chicago possessed underground train networks.
