EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the historic Achilles Class Locomotive No. 3047, affectionately named "Lorna Doone," which was built in 1895 with a 4-2-2 wheel arrangement. The locomotive's unique design, featuring four leading wheels, two powered driving wheels, and two trailing wheels, was a common configuration for steam locomotives of the time. Lorna Doone was a proud addition to the Great Western Railway (GWR) fleet, serving diligently for nearly two decades before her retirement in 1912. The locomotive's intricate details, from the ornate boiler to the meticulously crafted chimney and cab, are a testament to the engineering prowess of the era. The photograph captures Lorna Doone in all her glory, as she sits quietly in the steam museum, a relic of a bygone era. The soft, natural light filters in through the windows, casting an ethereal glow over the locomotive's once-brilliant red livery, now faded and weathered with the passage of time. Despite being out of service for over a century, Lorna Doone remains a symbol of the romance and adventure of the steam railway age. Her presence in the museum serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and determination of the engineers and railway workers who built and operated these magnificent machines. As visitors walk through the museum, they can't help but be drawn to Lorna Doone, her story, and the history she represents. The photograph encapsulates the essence of steam railway history, transporting us back in time to an era of steam, smoke, and the unforgettable sound of a roaring locomotive.
