Two views of one machine, one from the end and one from the side, make this sheet a working record of Stephenson's patent locomotive engine. George Stephenson and his son Robert built locomotives that showed steam power could haul trains reliably on a public railway, and their designs were widely copied through the 1830s. Comparing the two views shows how the boiler, cylinders and wheels were arranged, the kind of detail engineers studied as railways spread across Britain and beyond.
