EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1882 engraving showcases Professors Ayrton and Perry's groundbreaking invention - the New Electric Railway. The image vividly captures the intricate workings of this revolutionary mode of transportation. At the heart of this marvel lies a gas engine, which supplies the powerful motive force that propels the railway forward. The print also highlights various components essential to its operation. The magneto electric machine, depicted in B, plays a crucial role in generating electricity for the system. Additionally, indicators C, D, E, and F provide real-time information about electric current flow along different sections of the track. To ensure seamless connectivity between each section, contact makers labeled a through d are strategically placed at their ends (a-d). These contact makers facilitate smooth transitions as trains traverse from one segment to another. Furthermore, blocking electro magnets (e-h) attached to each section act as safety mechanisms by preventing any unauthorized entry or collisions. An enlarged view of one such magnet is displayed separately (1), emphasizing its importance in maintaining order on the line. The print also features an automatic map indicator (4) that dynamically displays train positions throughout their journey on this innovative railway system. This vintage engraving not only serves as a historical artifact but also exemplifies exquisite illustrative techniques employed during Victorian times. Its retro-styled charm transports us back to an era when scientific progress was transforming society's approach towards travel and transportation.
