Through the annals of history, transport has shaped the course of battles and nations. From the arrows flying at the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, to the Blanket Signal guiding the way for Remington's cowboys in the Wild West, transport has been a pivotal player. The Lion locomotive roared onto the scene in 1838, revolutionizing land travel for the Liverpool & Manchester Railway. Gustave Boulanger's Versailles troops arrived triumphantly at the Place de la Concorde during the Franco-Prussian War in 1870. The Battle of Resaca de la Palma in 1846 was captured in intricate detail through Nathaniel Currier's lithograph. The R-1000 airship took to the skies in the 1930s, while early 1900s bicyclists pedaled their way through newfound freedom. And in the silent era of film, William Farnum's cowboys and Blanche Sweet's ships set sail on cinematic adventures. Each mode of transport, a testament to human ingenuity and progress.
