EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s transports us back to a time when steam locomotives ruled the tracks. The image showcases the magnificent GWR (4-4-0) Bulldog SWIFT (3350), a true symbol of power and innovation during its heyday. Although the exact location is unknown, it is believed to be taken at Truro station in Cornwall. In this snapshot frozen in time, eight proud workers stand confidently in front of the locomotive, their faces filled with pride and accomplishment. These men were part of a team that brought this impressive machine to life, meticulously crafting every detail at Swindon Works in March 1900. The Bulldog SWIFT was not just any train; it possessed remarkable capabilities that made it an invaluable asset on challenging terrains like Devon and Cornwall. Its distinctive feature was its 5ft 8in driving wheels, which allowed it to conquer steep gradients effortlessly. Sadly, as progress marched forward, so did technology. In 1912, this particular locomotive underwent renumbering as 3338 before ultimately meeting its demise in November 1933 when it was withdrawn from service and scrapped. However, for over three decades, this iconic engine served faithfully alongside its fellow Bulldogs as one of only 156 locomotives of its kind. Preserved within this photograph lies not only a piece of railway history but also a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship that propelled Britain's Great Western Railway into.
