The iconic steam-powered engine, a masterpiece of engineering by George Stephenson and Robert Stephenson, revolutionized the transportation industry with its unprecedented speed and efficiency. The Rocket, named for its distinctive shape and propelled by high-pressure steam, was a game-changer in the world of locomotives.

The image is a poignant reminder of the enduring allure of steam-powered locomotives and the fascination they continue to inspire in young and old alike.
