I think this is an answer to your question.

Quote:
The first train in India was operational on December 22, 1851, used for the hauling of construction material in Roorkee. A few months later, on April 16, 1853, the first passenger train between Bori Bunder, Bombay and Thane covering a distance of 34 km (21 miles) was inaugurated, formally heralding the birth of railways in India.
