EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Steam Rail Motor Car number 80, a historic relic of the Gloucester Railway Carriage and Wagon Company's (GRC&W) illustrious past. Built in 1906 as part of the Q diagram and lot number 1101 series, this self-propelled vehicle represents an intriguing fusion of carriage and steam engine. Steam rail motors, like number 80, were revolutionary in their time, offering a degree of autonomy and flexibility unmatched by traditional steam locomotives. The engine was housed within the carriage itself, eliminating the need for a separate locomotive and tender. This design not only simplified the railway infrastructure but also provided a smoother, more comfortable ride for passengers. The exact location of this photograph on the Great Western Railway (GWR) network remains a mystery, adding to the allure of this time capsule from the golden age of steam rail travel. The intricate details of the Steam Rail Motor Car's design are on full display, from the ornate latticework adorning its exterior to the meticulously crafted windows that offer glimpses into a bygone era. Number 80's preservation at the STEAM Museum of the GWR is a testament to the enduring fascination with the history of steam rail transport. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and innovation that shaped the railway industry and continues to captivate generations of rail enthusiasts.
