Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Crystal Palace pneumatic railway was an experimental atmospheric railway constructed near The Crystal Palace c.1864. The railway was designed by Thomas Webster Rammell, who had previously built an atmospheric railway for the General Post Office to convey letters along vacuum-driven tunnels in large wagons. A similar principle was applied to this railway, by which a carriage, which had been fitted with a large collar of bristles, would be sucked along an airtight tunnel that measured 10 feet by 9 feet.
