EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Locomotive No. 1007, a 4-2-2 eight foot single express engine, in its prime on the rails of a northern railway. The locomotive, a masterpiece of engineering and design, was built by the Great Northern Railway (GNR) in the late 19th century. Its sleek and powerful appearance is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the railway industry during this period. The 4-2-2 wheel arrangement, with four leading wheels, two power wheels, and two trailing wheels, was a common configuration for express passenger locomotives of the time. The engine's eight-foot driving wheels provided ample power and traction, enabling it to haul heavy express trains at impressive speeds. The steam-powered locomotive emits a plume of smoke and steam from its stack, adding to its romantic and iconic image. The intricate details of the locomotive's design are on full display, from the ornate boiler to the meticulously crafted wheels and pistons. The engine's polished brass fittings gleam in the sunlight, adding to its grandeur. The railway transported people and goods across vast distances, connecting communities and fueling economic growth. The locomotive was the backbone of this transportation network, and engines like Locomotive No. 1007 played a crucial role in shaping the modern world. This photograph is a nostalgic reminder of a bygone era, when the roar of a steam locomotive signaled the arrival of progress and the promise of new horizons.
