18 nov 1883 anni - Time Zones Created

Descrizione:

Time zones in the United States were created in 1883 by the American Railway Association to resolve the confusion caused by each railroad using its own standard time, which varied widely. This system divided the country into four standard time zones, simplifying schedules and increasing safety and efficiency for railroads and later for the general public, fostering a more organized and interconnected national infrastructure.
