Tuesday Torque: Model T Ford Railcar

You will have to go to New Zealand to see all of the great things in this video.  The things that really caught my attention were the controls on the T.  This T and some of the parts you see later were made for the British market, so the pedals and the brake lever are on the right side of the transmission. I had never thought of that, and I wonder why Henry didn't say "You can drive them in the UK if you like, but you will have to sit on the left!"




Here's a screen shot from the video showing four transmission housings made for right-hand pedals.
