Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Simon!
Ben Jones's article cited a tweet by Shine Pulikathara which links to his viz with marginal histograms.
So I just added boxplots to Shine's viz.
Workbook: Fall Hard Stand Tall+Box Plot
I had to fix the discrete axis first by creating bins that can be turned into continuous pills. And fix the colors. That's all. Now Ben can add a third variant to his article.

Alex,
I am trying to view your blog post at
http://vizdiff.blogspot.com/2015/11/overlaying-histogram-with-box-and.html
but it is displaying "Sorry, the page you were looking for in this blog does not exist".
In truth, I am more interested in the multiple stacked histograms and how to create that in Tableau. Thanks for your help.
