This groundbreaking and visionary work by the pioneering engineer George Medhurst offers a radical and innovative proposal for the construction of atmospheric railways, one of the most ambitious and daring engineering projects of the 19th century. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of physics, mechanics, and materials science, Medhurst develops a comprehensive and practical plan for building a network of railways powered by compressed air, offering unprecedented speed, efficiency, and safety.
