Make recently posted about the Freak Vehicles pages over at Modern Mechanix – and oh, it’s times like this when you realise that when people say that truth is stranger than fiction, they were probably talking about the curious and downright inventive forms of transport that turn of the 20th Century inventors dreamed up. From the curiously familiar (using kites to power a trip to the North Pole) to the quite impractical (eagle steered airship) to the tragically cut short. It’s three pages of great contraptions, real Steampunk, written from the perspective of the 1930’s – and just because they’re great (and H.G. Wells related) here’s two pedrail related images to bundle along with it.
