An old engraving of Todd’s ‘fireless locomotive’ of 1875, a tram or streetcar powered by onboard tanks of pressurised steam. It is from a Victorian book of the 1880s. The tanks were filled by connecting to an external boiler (bottom). The advantage over onboard steam was lower running costs & clean running; but they needed regular refilling. Soon locos powered by steam or compressed air were displaced by diesel and electric ones. L J Todd was a Scottish engineer from Leith. Similar vehicles were built by Emile Lamm. The ‘Lamm's Fireless Engine’ streetcar ran in New Orleans in the 1870s. Stock Photo

A granite monument marks the border between the United States and Mexico in San Ysidro at the southernmost end of the trolley line from San Diego, USA. The lengthy boundary line was determined by a joint commission from the two countries after the end of the U.S.-Mexican War in 1848. This is one of 258 markers eventually placed along the 1,989-mile border after treaties gave the United States 525,000 square miles of Mexican territory for payment of $15 million. A flood in the late 1800s washed away marker No. 255 but this middle section was found buried in a field in 1979 and then restored. Stock Photo
