EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Armstrong-Whitworth Road Roller Type 2, registration number BD 7511, built in 1923. Manufactured by the renowned Armstrong-Whitworth engineering company, this road roller is a testament to the industrial prowess of the early 20th century. The Road Roller Type 2 is a compound, meaning it utilizes both high and low-pressure cylinders to generate the necessary force for compacting and smoothing road surfaces. With five cylinders in total, this machine was an essential tool in the construction and maintenance of roads during the 1970s and 1980s. The image captures the road roller in its element, with its large, textured tires leaving distinct impressions on the asphalt as it rolls forward. The intricate details of the machine's design are on full display, from the robust frame and wheels to the meticulously engineered cylinders. Despite its industrial appearance, the road roller holds a certain aesthetic appeal, with its aged patina and weathered surfaces adding to its character. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when such machines played a crucial role in shaping and maintaining our infrastructure. The Armstrong-Whitworth Road Roller Type 2, registration number BD 7511, stands as a symbol of engineering innovation and the indelible mark it left on the construction industry. This image, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, serves as a reminder of the beauty and history hidden within the world of industrial machinery.
