Other than one prototype unit, however, the locomotive was never produced. By 1850, steam was clearly king, and any horse-powered railways outside of streetcar operations were on the way out. Thus, the Impulsoria became nothing more than a strange curiosity of an early railway engine.

The Wikipedia article talked about how well the trials went. I was wondering if any were actually used.
