The Good Old Days

The Good Old Days.

The following warning to railway travellers appeared ‘in “The Morning Post” in November, 1838:-

“All persons travelling by railway, are strongly recommended not to fix their eyes loo intently on objects which they pass, as doing so is likely to prove both painful and injurious to those most delicate organs. This is especially urged to those who may have a tendency towards a determination of blood to the head as being likely to increase that tendency.”
