Barrow-in-Furness Railway Station: A Glimpse into the Past with the Preserved "Coppernob" Locomotive (circa 1909) This postcard image transports us back in time to Barrow-in-Furness Railway Station, showcasing the famous Furness Railway steam locomotive, "Coppernob," preserved in its glass case outside the station. The "Coppernob," a historical marvel, held a significant place at the station from 1907 until 1941. The "Coppernob," a name synonymous with the rich railway heritage of Barrow-in-Furness, was meticulously preserved in this protective glass case for the admiration of passengers. This unique display allowed the public to appreciate the intricate details of the locomotive up close, providing a glimpse into the golden age of rail travel. The "Coppernob," with its distinctive design and powerful presence, was a testament to the engineering prowess of the era. Its preservation at the station was a source of pride for the local community and a draw for rail enthusiasts from near and far. However, as the years passed, the need for additional security measures necessitated the transfer of the "Coppernob" to the National Railway Museum at York, where it continues to captivate visitors with its historical significance. This postcard image offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to the rich railway history of Barrow-in-Furness and the "Coppernob" locomotive. The glass case, rail, and station serve as a time capsule, transporting us back to an era when steam locomotives ruled the rails.
