From the 'Turnback Tuesday' archives: Early transportation

This week's "Turnback Tuesday" looks at one of the early modes of transportation between Derby ("Birmingham”) and New Haven. This picture shows the stagecoach waiting for its next daily run to New Haven. 

Many modes of transportation have been employed over the years – walking, horseback, carts and wagons, carriages, railroads, rivers and canals, horse cars and horse railways, bicycles, trolleys and automobiles.
