Tank engine for the Weardale Lead Company

from North East Museums

• A.Davey said:

  I hope it had a long, productive and safe life.

  We'll soon find out Alan. I've hotlinked it to a few local history groups and we also have some excellent train fanatics viewing these pages. Almost every steam loco built has had its full history recorded..

• optimal chicken said:

  I have some feedback; ' Little Nut. ran between the Boltsburn Mill, Boltsburn Mine, Lintzgarth Mill Wolfcleugh'. It seems it had a crew of two men and due to the weather extremes of where it was working (high in the North Pennines) it was fitted with a more weatherproof cabin which looked much like larger locos. It seems that wasn't enough (it can snow sideways up there!) and it was fitted with basic full wooden doors! This small loco was also given its own small snow plough to keep the tracks clear!

The engine room of 'Naess Crusader'

from North East Museums

• A.Davey said:

  Oh, it's going to be noisy in there someday! But thanks to the crew, this engine room will be kept in Bristol condition.

• Glyn Nelson said:

  A Harland and Wolff (Belfast) engine. 8 cylinder in line 2 stroke with a total of 28,000 horsepower.

Manoeuvring prefabricated sections at Readhead's shipyard

• optimal chicken said:

  It staggers me that they achieved the correct angles and shapes to create a balanced and equal shaped ship like this. They were designed using slide rules and paper yet made them to a very high standard - real skills.
