Fury In Glasgow
The newly-built locomotive 6399 Fury, of the London Midland and Scottish Railway, Glasgow, December 1929. The Fury was an experimental express passenger locomotive using a high pressure steam boiler system, which proved impractical and led to the locomotive being laid up until 1935. It was then rebuilt with a conventional boiler to become 6170 British Legion. (Photo by Puttnam/Topical Press Agency/Hulton Archive/Getty Images)

Fury In Glasgow - A Glimpse into Steam Power Innovation
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to December 1929 in Glasgow, where the newly-built locomotive 6399 Fury of the London Midland and Scottish Railway stands proudly. This experimental express passenger locomotive was a testament to the relentless pursuit of innovation during that era. The Fury boasted a revolutionary high pressure steam boiler system, designed to enhance its speed and efficiency. However, despite its promising potential, this ambitious concept proved impractical in practice. Consequently, the locomotive was laid up until 1935 when it underwent a significant transformation. In an effort to salvage this remarkable piece of engineering history, the Fury was rebuilt with a conventional boiler and reemerged as the iconic 6170 British Legion. This adaptation allowed it to continue serving admirably on Britain's rail network for years to come. Captured by Puttnam from Topical Press Agency/Hulton Archive/Getty Images, this photograph exudes nostalgia for an era defined by technological advancements. The image showcases the majestic presence of this steam train against a backdrop of open skies – symbolizing progress and freedom. As we gaze upon this solitary object devoid of people amidst nature's grandeur, we are reminded not only of our past but also how far transportation technology has evolved since then. It serves as a reminder that even failed experiments contribute valuable lessons towards future breakthroughs in science and technology. This archival masterpiece is more than just a photograph; it encaps
