Short Line Railroad

Yet another fun fact:

There never was a Short Line Railroad in Atlantic City. Monopoly's inventor Charles Darrow needed a fourth railroad in order to keep the board symmetrical. The Short Line was actually a freight-hauling bus company, and they had a depot located in Atlantic City. Thus, Monopoly's fourth "railroad" was born!
