EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate design of an Standard Tender, built by the esteemed E.B. Wilson Company in 1845. The tender, a type of railway vehicle designed to carry water and fuel for a steam locomotive, was an essential component of the burgeoning railway transportation system of the time. The detailed illustration reveals the tender's plan, elevations, and sections, providing a comprehensive view of its design. The tender's rectangular shape is evident, with a flat bottom and sloping sides that taper towards the top. The front and rear ends are adorned with ornate details, including decorative scrollwork and intricate latticework. At the center of the tender, a large water tank dominates the design. The tank is surrounded by a series of pipes and valves, which would have been used to fill and empty the tank as needed. The tender also features a coal bunker, located at the rear, which would have held fuel for the steam locomotive. The steam engine, not depicted in this print, would have been coupled to the tender via a yoke and drawbar. The engine would have relied on the water and coal carried in the tender to generate steam, powering its pistons and driving the wheels. The Standard Tender, as shown in this print, represented the latest in railway technology and design. Its innovative features and efficient design would have enabled longer and more frequent steam-powered journeys, contributing to the growing popularity and reach of the railway system in the mid-19th century.
