  1. The first train that came to Bridgetown.
    The first train that came to Bridgetown, surprised everyone that came out to see it.
    It happened in the year 1904 or 1905. The old people were surprised very much when they saw the new way of travelling. The railway was cut through the ball-alley of Bridgetown, the ruins of which are beside the railway still.
