A steamship, from New York City took 115 days to reach to San Francisco in 1848. In 1851, all telegraph stations in the USA were connected and by 1940 there were 40 telegraph lines across the Atlantic.

WHO THE HELL ARE WE? is a series of short books and videos describing the evolution of civilization. Almost everyone on the planet is five times wealthier than their ancestors only 50 years ago. This astonishing phenomenon has also improved health, education, and longevity. The cause; an explosive growth in ideas and productivity. It began when we learned to control fire, evolved articulate speech and stumbled onto the way to create infinite wealth; free trade. The discovery of agriculture made us richer but we also learned how to destroy wealth. Great civilization grew up but then disappeared leaving only incredible ruins and ideas. Later books detail some of the ideas and developments that increased the average life span from about 40 years to more than 80 and the average world income from less than $3 to more than $33 per person per day (and to $140 per day in some countries).Complete
Marcus The Maniac || A TOSS STORY
Dear readers, There were many engines on The Fat Controller's railway who weren't written about by Wilbert Audrey. There are several different reasons as to why, from not wanting to be written about to Wilbert having too much on his plate already. (I personally blame the publishers for that last one.) However, one of these engines has finally spoken up about an event not many people look at... the time the NWR was without a shunter, before Percy arrived, and after Thomas left for the Farquhar Branch. However, this tank engine wasn't as nice as the other two, but I hope you all find this topic as interesting as I do, and maybe even think about it for your own pleasure. Sincerely, ~Michael TTTE is owned by Mattel The characters of Marcus and Haylee are owned by me.Complete
