PART B_2
There are a lot of great inventors who have not been famous in the world. Karl Ritter von Ghega is one of them.
He was the man who designed the Semmering Railway in Austria. This railway is famous for being the first railway constructed through the Alps. This construction project was a challenge because of the steep slopes and high areas in the location.
When Karl Ritter von Ghega was 18 years old, he began his career as a railway engineer. To improve his skills and knowledge, he traveled to the USA for a year because the country had the most advanced engineering technology at that time.
The Austrian government had a hard time to approve the construction of the Semmering Railway because constructing a railway in high mountains, like the Alps, was extremely difficult. So, Karl submitted a plan that would make the most of locomotive technology to the government. It took time for them to accept his proposal because nothing like this was ever accomplished before. In the end, the government accepted his proposal because the revolution in 1848 was enough reason to make the decision. With people’s needs and expectations, the construction of Semmering Railway started in 1848.
This railway not only connected Vienna to Trieste for traveling purposes, but also allowed people to do business. The said railway has been a remarkable project in the field of engineering up to this time.
