Charles Dickens wrote a contemporary account of travel on the railroad in Chapter X of his American Notes.
According to Dickens' biographer Michael Slater, the title American Notes for General Circulation may have been a joke at the expense of American currency.
Dickens himself visited New York in the early forties and wrote the Book "American Notes".
