TRAINS WITHOUT WHEELS.

10 operate railroads entirely without wheels using
gliding shoes which are separated from their

According to the Electrical Experimental this was
tried in France just before the Prussian war.
and the early experiments proved that the plan
could be successfully carried The war OF 1870
