EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the timeless beauty and power of a Marshall General Purpose Engine, specifically model BT 6447, with registration number 76751. Built in the early 1920s by Marshall, Sons & Co., this engine boasts a 7 Nhp (Nominal Horsepower) single cylinder steam engine. The machine, a testament to engineering prowess of the past, was constructed during the 1923 production year. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to the 1960s and 1980s when steam-powered machinery was still a common sight in agricultural and heavy transport industries. The Marshall General Purpose Engine, with its robust design and distinctive features, was a versatile workhorse that could tackle various tasks with ease. The single cylinder engine, a marvel of engineering in its time, is evident in this image with its large, gleaming cylinder and intricate piping. The steam engine's power is harnessed through a belt drive system, which is connected to the large flywheel at the rear of the engine. The engine's impressive size and weight are further emphasized by the surrounding environment, with the operator standing nearby for scale. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the role that steam-powered machinery played in shaping our industrial and agricultural landscapes. It is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of engineers and manufacturers who built these magnificent machines, and a reminder of the rich history of transportation and machinery.
