The History Corner

Body
History isn’t simply the study of famous people or important events. History can be found through dimensions and length. Measurements established both infrastructure and everyday transportation. The history of movement melts down to one simple measurement, 4 feet, 8½ inches. This became the standard railroad gauge used throughout the United States. But even that size had its own historical establishment.
