Samuel Clegg Jnr (1814-1856) and Joseph Samuda's (1813-1885) atmospheric railway. This was the system adopted on the Croydon Atmospheric Railway, the Kingstown and Dalkey (Dublin), the Paris and St. Germain, and the South Devon railways. The railway operated without locomotives, using air pressure instead to push freight cars along the rails. From The Magazine of Science. (London, 1845). Wood engraving.
