bennie railplane

trawling through an encyclopaedia of c.1939 for red house stuff i stumbled on this extraordinary vehicle of which i had never heard before. it was real, it was built and ran in glasgow in the mid 30's and carried people, albeit for just over a hundred yards before its inventor went bankrupt halting any further development.
