Listen "34: American Articulation (with David Grimshaw)"
Episode Synopsis
Our guest is author David Grimshaw, talking about articulated locomotives, but not the sort that immediately come to mind. These machines were built in America long before Fairlie or Meyer's creations.
Horatio Allen's articulated locomotives were built in the 1830s for the South Carolina Canal and Rail Road Company, at the time the longest railway in the world!
Thanks to David for joining us on the podcast.
