And Now For Something Completely Different...New Idea, Or Just Revamped

Think cargo and Taxi cycles deliveries were an original, bang up to date idea???
Wrong they were doing this type of delivery, way back in 1927

Or what about an electric scooter.... this has got to be bang up to date... surely ???

Wrong, this one below dates back all the way to 1916

    
And this fine specimen below was an exclusive nanny version dating 1922

And finally, surely this has got to be an out and out first, the Dynamo Electric Purpose Built London Taxi

Not so.... The Bersey Electric Cab (also known as the London Electrical Cab) was an early electric-powered vehicle and the first electric taxi cab in London. Developed by Walter Bersey the vehicles reportedly had a top speed of 12 mph (19 km/h) and could carry two passengers.
