Train - Cow catching technology 1869 Notebook

Colourized photo from 1869 Original title: Rawlings Springs Photographer: Andrew Russell Location: Sedgwick, Rawling Springs, WY Look at all the interesting improvements in cow catching technology. Cowcatchers are triangular devices mounted to the front of a locomotive (even modern ones), that is used to help escort a lazy bovine out of the way. Struck by a train, the cow becomes steak and the train may derail, I would imagine. The first cowcatcher was invented by Charles Babbage in 1838. No one mentioned what inspired him to make such a thing, but I would love to see his prototypes and testing methods. The design basically lifts a cow off the tracks and place him on the side, but I'm sure it left a bruise of some kind. These models are a bit more unusual as they covered the open areas with wood. I can only imagine that animals got their leg caught in it and this would maybe stop that? Or maybe it cleared small rocks off the tracks, it would explain that patch the centre one has. We may never know.

This arrived So Much faster than I was expecting. I left plenty of time for international shipping and then didn't need it. I wasn't sure how the image would turn out (have never bought a notebook from Zazzle before). I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the image.

The image was bright and crisp - the details of the artwork came out perfectly. The paper is easy to write on. Perfect printing - better than expected!
