    Trevithick's locomotive is running backwards, with the tender at the wrong end. The funnel is at the back of the engine, and the flywheel is at the front. The controls are also by the funnel, which means that - in this "configuration" - the driver cannot operate the engine.

    My fellow Cornishman Richard Trevithick first invented high pressure steam power and was the first to use it for locomotion. It's sad that Stephenson seems to have become better known.
    I live in Trevithick's home town in Cornwall. It's sad that he died penniless in Dartford, Kent.

    Very well done. I love these early pioneering locos the best. Most of these later locos like the Rocket onwards went at a fair clip for the time. Most people nowadays wouldn't know what these steam engines, or think that they go only at a walking pace.

    The Rocket may not have been the first steam locomotive but it had a lot of innovation like a multi-tube boiler, double acting pistons and exhaust suction. I think it went in reverse, had water injection and brakes too?

      We have to be grateful she did, as while she was a nifty runner, she was a sports car when what the world needed was Land Rover. History shows the importance of the multi-tubular boiler and the blast pipe to the future design of Locomotives. Novelty was just that, a novelty. Her successor the George IV proved that the design was not good enough to move coal traffic on the St. Helens to Runcorn Gap railway with any efficiency or success.

    During the 1780's John Fitch created the first model of a steam locomotive engine. He pesented this idea in front of George Washington and his cabinet in Philadelphia. Fitch's vision was to make a bigger model and run it through the Allegany Mountains where the U.S. faced problems of shipping supplies.
    "Fitch's little locomotive operated on track made of wooden beams held in place by wheels with flanges on the outside of the wood rails, rather than inside as later became standard railroad practice. It featured a copper boiler mounted sideways on the frame and employed a sort of grasshopper lever motion to transmit power to the wheels"(nhs). The United States government wasn't well receptive to this idea and didn't want the shipping of supplies to be done by machine.

    You can download my models (Steve) from my website: www.ballynagarrick.net/ing4trainz/index.htm They are freeware for Trainz railway simulator. Don't run them too fast! Most had a top speed of about 5 mph until Rocket came along. Certainly those by Trevithick rarely got to 12 mph. I have modelled three versions of Hedley's loco: Puffing Billy as a 10-wheel plateway (flangeless) loco; then as Steam Horse, with flanged wheels for edge rail (the usual type); and finally as Wylam Dilly which was the final version with just 4 driving wheels. Plateway track is also available from my website. I have posted my own video of Puffing Billy etc at ruclips.net/video/SmJ8iOjDlSM/видео.html
    btw the steam whistle sound I've used on Novelty is my ringtone!
