Sorry, Rich, but are you are wrong. Boston had the first subway system in America. It opened in 1897. As for which country had it first, I'm not too sure, but it was probably the United States.

London, England followed by Pest, Hungary (the "Yellow" line)

London was first in the world... Boston was first in the US.

I may be wrong, but I believe it was in New York City, New York, USA and the construction was completed in 1904.
