Baldwin at Brecon Mountain Railway by Barry Price. The Railway Engine No 2 was built by Baldwin of Philadelphia in the USA in 1930. The Locomotive worked for 43 years hauling limestone near Port Elizabeth in South Africa. In 1974 the Baldwin Locomotive was wrecked when it ran away without a driver and the engine was writen off. It was purchased by Brecon Mountain Railway and brought back to the UK. The engine is a 4-6-2 tender locomotive weighing 47 tons. In 1990 work was started on the task of rebuilding the locomotive and it finally entered traffic in 1997. The vintage steam locomotive runs through beautiful scenery into the Brecon Beacons National Park along the full length of the Taf Fechan Reservoir to Dol-y-Gaer, one of the best scenic railways in the UK. |
Duchess of Sutherland by David Weston. Designed by William Stanier and built in 1938 for the London, Midland and Scottish Railway, the Duchess of Sutherland ran 1,650,000 miles - the second highest mileage by any Coronation Class train - during its 25 years of service. Retiring from service in 1964, the engine passed between owners before being restored to working order in 2001, and becoming the first steam locomotive to haul the Royal Train for 35 years in 2002, transporting Queen Elizabeth II on a tour to North Wales as part of her Golden Jubilee. Unsigned part of the edition of 750 prints. |
