RAILWAYS
In Piedmont, the railways arrived in 1848, nine years later the line Naples-Portici. Very early, the line Turin-Moncalieri-Trofarello extended and branched, turning from a touristic curiosity into an actual territorial fixture.
The town was crossed from North to South by the railways joining the Milan railway (North) to Genoa (South), with a West branch bound to France.
Quite early, this new backbone revolutioned the urbanistic growth of Turin which started developing along the new (and efficient) communication system, across the North-Southern line. New factories were set up along the railway axis.
