Stephenson’s Rocket Locomotive – Own A Piece Of History

Originally build in 1829 in Newcastle for the Rainhill Trials and it was one of the most advanced trains in the world at it’s time.

It was not, as many people thing the first steam train, but it was the first of it’s kind using a multi-tubular boiler which increased the capacity of steam being moved around making it much more efficient.

The Rocket was made even more famous, when at the opening ceremony of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway on 15th September 1830, William Huskisson was hit by the train and killed.

Huskisson whilst not the first person to die by train, was certainly one of the most famous.
