English: Original captions and text: "Fig: 18. Gillingham & Winans' "Crab" Locomotive" "Fig. 18 is copied from a photograph taken after the engine had been in service for many years." (Forney) "Fig. 8. A Crab" (Bell). This locomotive substantially conforms to the drawings in Winans' US Patent 308, granted in 1837. To reduce artifacts from both printing and scanning, this image is a composite of 3 images, 2 from Forney, 1 from Bell. |
