1.02 - Motive power to (about) 1825

  • Résumé

  • You waited patiently through episode 1 thinking, "When's he going to get to the engines?" Well, this is the one about the engines!   Contrary to popular opinion Rocket was not the first locomotive in Britain. In fact, it was about the seventieth.   This episode uses some of the important ones that came before to illustrate the state-of-the-art for motive power before the Rainhill Trials in 1829.  

    Come and join Michael Lancashire as he gets distracted, fascinated ... and yes, even sidetracked ... by stories from the railways (or railroads if you're American).
