What is a ruin? We're running off of "You know it when you see it" at the moment. Ruins should be non-functioning structures of some age, or their function reduced to tourism and the like. Generally speaking, specific items from a ruin should go to HistoryArtifacts@kbin.social Illustrations of ruins (or their reconstructions) should go to HistoryDrawings@kbin.social Photos of ruins back when they were functioning should go to !HistoryPorn@lemmy.world

Yep a lot of early railways in UK were broad guage. Like brunnels Great Western. So even in England a lot of non compatible rail existed.
Ah, I love those stepping stones.
That seems like it would be hard for horses? If it's a single horse pulling, then they constantly have to step over the middle stepping stone. And if it's a team, they're constantly having to avoid stepping into the wagon ruts.
