EDITORS COMMENTS
"This photograph captures the historic moment when No. 3433 City of Bath, a 4-4-0 City class locomotive built in 1903 by the Great Western Railway (GWR), was transformed into a Royal Train for the visit of the Prince of Wales. The image, taken in 1903, shows the locomotive adorned with the elegant fleur-de-lys insignia of the Prince of Wales, adding an air of grandeur and importance to the already impressive steam engine. The City of Bath, named after the historic English city, was one of 30 City class locomotives built by the GWR between 1902 and 1904. These locomotives were designed for express passenger services and were known for their powerful performance and advanced features, including a Belpaire firebox and a large boiler. The Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII, was a frequent visitor to the City of Bath, and this locomotive was likely chosen for its impressive design and reliability to transport him around the country. The addition of the royal insignia not only signified the importance of the journey but also added an extra layer of prestige to the locomotive. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, showcasing the elegance and grandeur of the early 20th century railway travel. The intricate details of the locomotive, from the polished metalwork to the ornate insignia, are beautifully captured in this image. It is a reminder of the rich history of steam railways and the role they played in shaping transportation in Britain." This photograph is part of the extensive collection of the STEAM Museum of the Great Western Railway, which showcases the history of the GWR and its impact on the development of the railway industry in the UK. The museum is a must-visit for anyone interested in the history of railways and the engineering marvels of the past.
