Prossers Wooden Railway, Wimbledon Common, 1845....a System of Tram-ways composed entirely of Wood, which the inventor, Mr. William Prosser, maintains to be " equally expeditious, and more safe, more durable, and considerably more economical than the iron railway." The main feature of the invention is, however, a system of Guide wheels, which have been patented by Mr. Prosser, and which may be applied either to iron or wooden rails. The proprietors of the patent have completed a line of Railway on this principle, on Wimbledon Common [in London]...The comparative cost of the superstructure of wooden and iron railways is stated to be as follows, per mile: Wooden Rail, £ 1, 746 8s.; Iron Rail, £ 3556.
