Side Tank Engine 'Pyramus' built in Newcastle upon Tyne

    It's incredible what they achieved without accurate tooling. I've seen early drills and tools at The National Railway Museum and by crikey it's amazing they worked at all! These men were truly pioneers of the modern railway.
  • Doug D said:
    I very much appreciate the details of equipment like this. Interesting to say the least.
  • A.Davey said:
    Yes, once the Victorians worked out how to build engines, they went on a huge building binge. Thank you for the information and the image. If you are ever in Sacramento, California, there's an outstanding railroad museum there.

Christmas message from the workers

  • optimal chicken said:
    The photo shows the staggering engineering which went into making ships. Each rivet needed a hole drilled to accomodate it. Then red hot rivets were shoved in and flattened over. That's aside from the actual cutting and shaping of each plate - every single one was different. All that but before they could do it they had to melt steel to make sheet. To make steel they had to mine ores and fuels.. The process of ship building is an incredible story from start to finish.
