This print showcases the remarkable City Class locomotive, No 3405, in all its glory. Built in 1902 as a rebuild of an Atbara class locomotive, this elegant 4-4-0 steam engine stands as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of its time. Its sleek design and powerful presence are truly awe-inspiring. Originally known as No 3405, this magnificent locomotive later received the new number 3705 during its illustrious career. The photograph captures it against the backdrop of Mauritius, adding an exotic touch to its already fascinating history. Displayed at the STEAM Museum of the GWR (Great Western Railway), this print transports us back to a bygone era when steam engines ruled supreme. It serves as a reminder of our rich railway heritage and pays homage to those who built and operated these incredible machines. The intricate details on this City Class locomotive are beautifully captured in this image – from its polished exterior to the finely crafted wheels that propelled it forward with grace and power. This photograph is not just a visual delight but also offers insight into how technology has evolved over time. As we admire this stunning piece of engineering marvel preserved within STEAM Museum's collection, let us appreciate both the beauty and functionality that once defined rail travel.
