Did you know that in 1838, the city of London held a race between a man and a horse? It wasn't merely a quirky event; it was a spectacle to showcase the capabilities of the steam-powered railway! The man, aptly named "Human Locomotive," was pitted against a horse-drawn carriage to demonstrate the power and speed of the new steam technology. Spoiler: the train won, forever changing how we travel and paving the way for modern transportation. 🚂✨
