The advent of mass railroad travel in the 1800s saw the extension of a system of global transport that developed various national styles of construction, operation, administration, and passenger experiences.
Drawing on travel narratives and a broad range of other contemporary sources, this history contrasts the railroad cultures of 19th century England and America, with a focus on the differing social structures and value systems of each nation, and how the railroad fit into the wider industrial landscape.
Trevor K. Snowdon, Ph.D., has worked as a social researcher and as a tertiary level teacher and administrator. He is currently an independent scholar and writer, living in Auckland, New Zealand.
