This enormous Edwardian & Post-World War I photo album captures the breadth of British locomotive engineering just prior to the 1921 Railways Act which consolidated by 1923 the approximately 120 different railways into four major railway companies each dominating its own geographic area resulting in the Great Western Railway GWR London Midland & Scottish Railway LMS London & North Eastern Railway LNER and the Southern Railway SR. The images depict several classes of steam locomotives designed and built under the direction of such steam and mechanical engineers William Dean George Jackson Churchward Vincent Raven William Stroudley Nigel Gresley Frances Trevthick Francis Webb George Whale John Adams Richard Maunsell Harry Pollitt Charles Sacre James Holden A.J. Hill and others. Opening with a striking photo of the historic Westbourne Park Shed before the railyard was moved the succeeding photos depict locomotives for the North British Railway North Staffordshire Railway Great Western Railway the Northwestern Railway India featuring an American-built Pittsburgh Mikado 2-8-2 wheel arrangement built before the 1901 merger forming ALCO South Eastern & Chatham Railway Manchester Sheffield & Lincolnshire Railway Great Eastern and a substantial portion devoted to the London & North Western Railway. Many of the steam locomotives here represent the first products of their class as well as significant Passenger Express locomotives including the famed Reid Class C10 & C11 4-4-42 Atlantics; the GWR 100 4-6-0 Locomotives; the SECR K & SR K1 Class 2-6-4 locomotives; the iconic Lord of the Isles which was one of the ifrst of the Iron Duke Class 4-2-2 Steam Locomotives first entering service in 1847 but then converted in 1865; the BER 4-6-0 Locomotive 1500 first of the Class S69 intended to compete with the fast growing Electric Railways and even Churchward’s noted No. 171 Albion a prototype 4-6-0 later converted into a 4-4-2 locomotive. Other interesting locomotives depicted include the early 0-4-0 Shunter introduced in 1863 by Ramsbottom for the LNWR 26 were built and operated until 1892; James McConnell’s iconic LNWR President No. 1007 Bloomer Class locomotive 2-2-2 built in 1861 with 74 built; and even the beautiful Quen Empress 2-2-2-2 built at Crewe Works and 3-cylinder locomotives for the LNWR.
