High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Kingston to Montego Bay line was Jamaica's main railway. It linked the capital Kingston with the second city Montego Bay, passing enroute most of the major towns. The first 14.5 miles (23.3 km) of standard gauge track were laid from Kingston to Angels (just North of Spanish Town) in 1845 at a cost of 222,250, or 15,377 per mile against a budgeted cost 150,000. An 11 mile extension from Spanish Town to Old Harbour was added in 1869 at a cost of 60,000. A further 24 1/2 mile extension from Old Harbour to Porus was added in 1885 at a cost of around 187,000. The final 62 miles (100 km) from Porus to Montego Bay was completed in 1895.
