EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a longitudinal section view of an early passenger engine, designed by George Stephenson's protege, Joseph Locke Hackworth, in 1846. The engine, manufactured by the Brighton Railway Company, was a significant advancement in rail transportation technology during the Victorian era. The intricate details of the steam-powered locomotive's inner workings are revealed in this illustration. The boiler, located at the rear of the engine, generates steam through the burning of coal. The steam then travels through the cylinders, which are situated below the firebox, and pushes the pistons back and forth, ultimately propelling the engine forward. The engine's elegant design includes a large driving wheel at the front, which connects to the axle and crankshaft, transferring the power from the pistons to the wheels. The smokebox, which encloses the chimney, contains the fire grate and ashpan. The cab, where the engineer would operate the engine, is situated at the front of the engine, providing a clear view of the track ahead. This engine, a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the railway industry during the 19th century, represents a pivotal moment in the development of steam-powered transportation. The intricate design and engineering of this locomotive paved the way for more advanced and efficient engines, revolutionizing the way people and goods were transported over long distances.
