EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic Stallion coal car engine, built in 1822, during the Stephenson Centenary celebrations in 1881. The Stallion engine, a significant milestone in the history of railways, is depicted here in all its glory, showcasing the ingenuity and innovation of the industrial revolution. The Stallion engine, designed by Robert Stephenson and William George Stephenson, was the first successful steam locomotive to be used on a public railway. It was named after the Duke of Wellington's horse, 'Copenhagen,' which was famously named 'The Iron Stallion.' The engine was initially used on the Stockton and Darlington Railway in England, paving the way for the widespread adoption of steam locomotives in the railway industry. The photograph was taken during the Stephenson Centenary celebrations, marking the 100th anniversary of Robert Stephenson's birth. The event brought together railway enthusiasts and historians from all over the world to pay tribute to the father of the railway age. The Stallion engine was brought out of retirement for the occasion, providing a rare opportunity for the public to witness this historic machine up close. This photograph, taken by R.H. Bleasdale for Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of steam power and industrial might. The Stallion engine stands as a testament to the pioneering spirit of the Victorian era and the remarkable advancements that shaped the world we live in today.
