The first scheduled train by the Old Colony Railroad arrived in Provincetown on July 23, 1873 to much fanfare. It was reported that when the first train with dignitaries arrived the day before,[1] old cannons boomed out salutes, church bells were rung and a brass band helped the crowd march up to the Pavilion on High Pole Hill.[2] New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad passenger service to Provincetown ended in July 1938 (excepting a brief restoration of service in 1940), but freight service survived until 1960, when the tracks above North Eastham were formally abandoned.[3]{{sfnp|Farson|1993|pp=232 & 238}} Historical imagesSee also
