G. W. Jones�������s Plan Of Universal Penny Railways: By The Application Of Turnpikes To Railways (1869) is a book written by George William Jones. The book presents an innovative plan for the construction of railways that would allow for the transportation of goods and people at a much lower cost than traditional railways. Jones proposes the use of turnpikes, or toll roads, to fund the construction of these railways. The book provides detailed plans and diagrams for the construction of these penny railways, as well as an analysis of the economic benefits of such a system. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of an innovative thinker who was ahead of his time in proposing a new approach to transportation infrastructure. It is a valuable resource for historians, transportation experts, and anyone interested in the history of railways and transportation infrastructure.A Practical Plan, Suitable To The Genius Of The People, And Calculated To Satisfy The Locomotive Requirements Of The Country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
