EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the majestic Locomotive No. 2664 Queen Mary, built in 1910 for the London and North Western Railway (L&NWR). The locomotive, a testament to the industrial prowess of the early 20th century, was a Western type 2-6-0 steam engine, known for its power and efficiency. The image showcases the intricate details of the locomotive's design, from its ornate lamp and NWR insignia to the intricately patterned boiler and the massive driving wheels. The steam billowing from the chimney adds to the sense of motion and energy, while the North Country landscape in the background provides a picturesque contrast. The Queen Mary was built during a time when railways were transforming the way people and goods were transported, making long-distance travel faster and more accessible. Steam locomotives like this one played a crucial role in the expansion of the railway network, connecting towns and cities across the country and facilitating the growth of industries. Despite the advent of more modern technologies, steam locomotives continue to hold a special place in the hearts of railway enthusiasts and history buffs. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the golden age of rail transport and the engineering marvels that defined it.
