EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Star locomotive, specifically the Grays Patent Engine, in a side elevation view, captured in the year 1897. Designed by John Shepherd Gray, this locomotive was a significant innovation in the realm of transportation technology during the late 19th century. The Star locomotive, named for its unique Walschaerts valve gear system, was a major departure from traditional locomotive designs of the time. John Shepherd Gray, an accomplished mechanical engineer, had been granted a patent for his innovative valve gear system in 1892. The Star locomotive was the first to employ this design, which allowed for more efficient steam usage and greater power output. The intricate gear system is clearly visible in this photograph, with the large drive wheels at the bottom and the smaller wheels at the top, all working in harmony to propel the locomotive forward. The Star locomotive was a marvel of engineering, with its robust construction and advanced design making it a favorite among railway enthusiasts. Its sleek lines and powerful presence are on full display in this photograph, which captures the essence of the steam locomotive era. The Star locomotive was a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of its designer, John Shepherd Gray, and represented a major step forward in the development of steam locomotives. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of transportation technology at the turn of the 20th century.
