EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating historical print captures the proposed alternative railway scheme in Panama in 1881. The ambitious idea was to construct a railway capable of carrying ships across the isthmus, providing a revolutionary mode of transport for both goods and passengers. However, despite serious consideration and planning, this innovative concept never materialized beyond the drawing board.
The image depicts the potential route of the railway, showcasing the intricate details and engineering required to make such a project possible. The thought of ships being transported over land on rails is truly mind-boggling and speaks to the ingenuity and creativity of those who dared to dream big during this time period.
Although ultimately unsuccessful, this alternative scheme serves as a reminder of the bold ideas that were put forth in history in an effort to improve transportation methods and connect distant regions. It also highlights how certain projects may not always come to fruition due to various challenges or limitations.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece of history through their prints online, allowing us to reflect on what could have been if this railway scheme had indeed been realized. It serves as a testament to human innovation and ambition, even when faced with obstacles that prevent progress from taking place.
