EDITORS COMMENTS
Locomotive No. 2002 4-6-0, a magnificent example of railway engineering from the Eastern Region of the British Railways, is shown here in all its steam-powered glory. The 4-6-0 designation refers to the number and arrangement of its wheels: four leading wheels, six powered wheels, and no trailing wheels. This particular locomotive, built in 1927 by the North British Locomotive Company, was a workhorse of the railways, capable of pulling heavy loads over long distances. The image captures the locomotive in its natural habitat, the railway line, as it prepares to depart from a station, leaving a trail of steam in its wake. The steam engine's intricate details are on full display, from the large chimney stack that releases the exhaust steam, to the intricately designed boiler and the various levers and valves that control the engine's movements. The locomotive's liveried engine house and number plate add to its distinctive appearance, while the surrounding landscape, with its rolling hills and trees, highlights the rugged beauty of the North. The scene is one of industry and nature in perfect harmony, a testament to the important role that railways played in transporting goods and people across the country. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, a reminder of the romantic era of steam locomotives and the vital role they played in shaping the transportation landscape of the 20th century. The image is a must-have for railway enthusiasts, historians, and anyone with an appreciation for the engineering marvels of the past.
