The History Guy: History Deserves to Be Remembered

The History Guy remembers the 1886 Southern Railroad Gauge Change, an important moment in railroad history. The photographs used in the episode are Public Domain images from the age of steam. As photos of actual events are sometimes not available, I will often use photographs of similar events and objects for illustration. The economic analysis mentioned in the episode is available here: https://www.hbs.edu/faculty/Pages/ite...
