 * This fellow had over 500 patents, and was the founder (electrically) of street railways, master controllers for trams (street cars), and involved in Brush, General Electric, Westinghouse and Dick Kerr - all famous names in the origin of electric railways. A very succinct, short article, given this fellow's achievements.
