EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from the 1840s depicts the magnificent Reinagle's Leviathan, a pneumatic engine designed by the ingenious British inventor, William George Reinagle. The Leviathan, named after the biblical sea monster, was a groundbreaking transportation innovation that harnessed the power of compressed air to move heavy loads. Reinagle's engine, built in 1846, was a marvel of engineering, measuring an impressive 15 feet in length and 7 feet in height. It was designed to be used in various industries, including transport, to move heavy goods more efficiently than traditional methods. The engine's most striking feature was its large cylinder, which was capable of storing a vast amount of compressed air. This air was then released in controlled bursts to power the engine's pistons, generating a powerful force that could move heavy loads with ease. The Leviathan was an important step forward in the development of locomotives and other pneumatic engines. Although it did not gain widespread commercial use due to the emergence of more practical and efficient steam engines, it paved the way for future advancements in this field. The image captures the Leviathan in all its glory, with its polished metal surfaces reflecting the light in the workshop, and its intricate mechanical components on full display. The engine's impressive size and innovative design make it a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the ingenuity and engineering prowess of the 19th century.
