Most folks would have never considered investing in the first railroads.
They viewed laying double reinforced ribbons of expensive steel
across barren flat and mountainous lands filled with nothing
but wild animals, untamed wilderness and threatened
natives who were more often killed than helped
by the smoking iron horse when it ripped
through their peaceful, predictable
lives as one of the craziest concepts ever conceived.
Thank you, friend.
Barry out.
