T. F. Bergin, of Dublin, took out a patent for an invention on the 4th March, 1835, which consists of a combination of coiled springs, with rods proceeding from end to end of the carriage, designed not only to prevent the concussions at stopping or starting, but likewise any prejudicial effects taking place, in the event of two trains coming into contact; also to receive and transmit the motion of one carriage to another, free from that abruptness which is alike unpleasant to the passengers and detrimental to the vehicles.
