EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Daniel Gooch's North Star locomotive, a legendary steam engine that graced the rails of the Great Western Railway (GWR) in the late 19th century. Gooch, an accomplished engineer and locomotive designer, created this engine in 1897 with the intention of setting a new standard for speed and efficiency on the GWR. The North Star, named for its distinctive headlight, was an impressive sight on the railway, with its powerful and sleek design. Its boiler was larger than those of previous locomotives, allowing for increased steam pressure and greater power output. The engine's cylinders were also larger, enabling it to cover more distance with each stroke. This photograph captures the North Star in its prime, exuding an air of power and determination as it chugs along the tracks. The steam billowing from its stack and the sparks flying from its wheels add to the sense of motion and energy. The engine's intricate details, from the ornate decorations on its sides to the delicate piping and valves, are on full display. The North Star was a game-changer for the GWR, setting new records for speed and efficiency and inspiring a new generation of locomotive designers. Its influence can still be seen in the steam engines of today, making it an important piece of railway history. This photograph is a testament to the engineering marvels of the past and the enduring allure of the steam train.
