"WEEK'S DETENTION FOR HANDCAR STUNT," Toronto Star. May 8, 1934. Page 3. --- Six Youths Punished for Escapade at Sunnyside ==== A week's detention was the sentence imposed in juvenile court yesterday on six 'teen-aged boys who risked their own lives and the safety of others by going for a spectacular ride on a stolen handcar on the railway tracks at Sunnyside a week ago Sunday.
Freight and passenger traffic was - tied up for a time as a result of the escapade.
Juvenile offences on railway property have shown a marked increase during the past year, said Rowland Flynn, superintendent of the C.N.R.'s investigation department, who stated that vigorous steps were being taken by railway police to suppress it, particularly with the safety of the offenders in mind.

💡 Brevetto n°37435: Fahrzeug mit Gasmotorenbetrieb. C’è una data cara ai tecnici che operano nelle officine di tutto il mondo ed è il 🗓 29 Gennaio. Grazie alla caparbietà dell'ingegnere 👨‍🔧 Karl Benz, nel lontano 1886, venne al mondo la prima 🚗 autovettura alimentata da un #motore a scoppio. Si trattava di un oggetto rivoluzionario in grado - per la prima volta nella storia dell’umanità – di spostarsi da sé, senza più bisogno del traino dei 🐎 #cavalli. Ciò che ispirò l’inventore fu la necessità di garantire il trasporto di più persone per lunghi tragitti; per questo motivo elaborò un’intelaiatura leggera e un equipaggiamento utilizzabile in modo intuitivo. Se a Karl dobbiamo la creazione della prima automobile, di certo Berta, sua moglie, può essere invece eletta come primo👩🏼‍🔧 “pilota” della storia del mondo. Eh sì! Mentre il marito si dedicava a ottimizzare il progetto, Bertha inaspettatamente testava la vettura portando i suoi figli Eugen e Richard in un'escursione fuori porta. Si trattava di una bravata inimmaginabile per l’epoca (ben 90 km andata e ritorno) e sicuramente stupefacente per tutti coloro che la videro sfrecciare lungo la via. . . #karlbenz #carhistory #handcar #alternator #gle #gasolineengine #electriccar #amg #train #mannheim #mercedes #carlbenz #machine #truck #bertharinger #waldhof (at Mannheim, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEUuqjfK9ez/?igshid=m7eq2bvo5fxz

Abandoned rail lines are fucked. They just go off into the distance covered in weeds and wild flowers and shit, but the metal’s still there and it would probably still fit a train. They make me want to put a new handcar on the rails, strap weed wackers to the front, and zoom across the great expanse mowing vegetation through both electric grinders and sheer speed whenever I see that.
