Rail power has been the engine that built and toppled entire empires. Like so many an invention throughout history, it has been turned into a tool of warfare. In this episode, we are going to examine some of the roles that trains have played in military campaigns since the invention of the first steam powered tram locomotive pulled 10-ton loads on a stretch of track in South Wales in 1804. It is a story of humble beginnings, tragedy, terror and eventually the great war itself. This is the history of War Trains. Welcome to Wars of the World.
