1971 Chevrolet Vegas being loaded onto unique railroad cars that were engineered to transport 30 vehicles vertically, nose-down, nearly doubling the capacity of standard autoracks.

  1. The guys working on the Chrysler Building in 1926: that looks typical from other picts I have seen. And I think OSHA is a few decades from being created from that point.

    The car carrier: isn’t that a better way to damage the cars in transit than the more common way to transport them?
