This meant that if it was 12:00 in Helsinki, the local times in other localities would range from 11:40.02 in Mariehamn, Cland, to 12:10.53 in Kuopio, North Savo. The railway required precise timetables that earlier means of transport, such as sailing ships and stage-coaches, did not require. The telegraph, which allowed near real-time communication, also made it inconvenient for each location to observe its own solar time. The first railway line in Finland b the HC$meenlinnabHelsinki railway b was inaugurated in 1862. Its timetables were noted in a common mean time, measured at the Helsinki University Observatory from the mean time of UTC+01:39:49.2, known as "Helsinki time". A ball was released at noon and its falling was noted optically at the railway station and the clock adjusted accordingly. If it was raining, which would prevent the ball from being seen from that far away, noon would additionally be announced by a shot from a cannon.
