Bitten by the Bug Part 1 R J Alliott
• Bitten by The Bug Part 1 R J Alliott Britain’s railway history is littered with a perhaps surprising number of one-offs - the Turbomotive, the Hush-Hush, Fowler’s Ghost, the Duke of Gloucester, and the Great Bear. Many of these remained one-offs because they were partially or wholly unsuccessful, because of subsequent changes of direction in locomotive development or because they were only experimental. However, an unusual example of a one-off that was always intended to be unique from the very outset was the LSWR 4-2-4T known officially as Mr. Drummond’s Car , but known far better by locomen of the time and by enthusiasts ever since as “The Bug”. Drummond himself has also gone down in locomotive engineer folklore as something of a one-off. Born at Ardrossan in 1840, he had served on the Dumbartonshire and Caledonian Railways, and at the North British Railway, where he worked under S. W. Johnson, before moving to the Highland Railway at Inverness under William Stroudley. After a spell with Stroudley again at Brighton, he had become locomotive superintendent of the North British Railway in 1875. Seven years later he joined the Caledonian, but then jointly formed the unsuccessful Australasian Locomotive Engine Works at Sydney. He had then returned quickly to Scotland and founded the Glasgow Railway Engineering Company, finally joining the London and South Western on 1st August 1895 at the very considerable salary of £1,500, this being sharply increased to £2,000 the following year. At the LSWR, he varied between the brilliant and the sadly unsuccessful in his designs and between the severe and compassionate in his dealings with his men and his machines. -

2A. Bluebell Railway Education Department
2a. Bluebell Railway Education Department The main parts of a locomotive Based on a Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway locomotive, built in 1925 From the book “Steam Railways Explained”, author Stan Yorke, with permission of Countryside Books BLUEBELL RAILWAY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT 2b. The development of the railway locomotive 1. The steam locomotive is, in essence, a large kettle which heats water until it turns into steam, that steam is then used, under pressure, to move the engine and the train. One of the earliest and most successful locomotives was “The Rocket” used on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway which opened in 1830. The Rocket Wheel arrangement 0-2-2 Built 1829 2. This early design was rapidly improved upon and the locomotive soon assumed the shape that we recognise today. “Captain Baxter was built in 1877 and can be seen today at the Bluebell Railway. Dorking Greystone Lime Company No 3 “Captain Baxter” Wheels 0-4-0T Built 1877 3. A the years went by bigger and faster locomotives were developed to meet the needs of both passengers and freight as illustrated by this South Eastern & Chatham Railway engine which ran between London and the Kent coast. South Eastern & Chatham Railway No. 263 Wheel arrangement 0-4-4T Built 1905 4. As passenger traffic grew in the 20th century still larger and more powerful engines were required. This Southern Railway engine, built in 1936, was sent to Barry Scrapyard in South Wales following the end of steam on British Railways in 1968. It was rescued by the Bluebell and delivered to Sheffield Park Station in 1978, where it was restored to running order.
