'Near Liverpool, looking towards Manchester', Liverpool and Manchester Railway, 1833. The world's first intercity railway, the Liverpool & Manchester Railway opened on 15 September 1830. Engineered by George Stephenson, the line was a remarkable feat of engineering, with viaducts, tunnels and an ingenious floating crossing of the peat bogs at Chat Moss.
