EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph showcases Merchant Taylors Southern Railway (SR) 4-4-0 3 cylinder express locomotive, designed by the renowned engineer Edward Lionel Maunsell and built at Eastleigh Works in 1934. The locomotive, painted by F. Moore, graces the frontispiece of the forty-first volume of Locomotive Magazine, published in 1934. Maunsell's innovative design, featuring a compact boiler and a shortened smokebox, aimed to improve the locomotive's performance and efficiency. The locomotive's powerful 3-cylinder engine and streamlined body were also notable features that set it apart from its contemporaries. This express locomotive, which was a testament to the technological advancements of the time, embodied the spirit of progress and innovation in the railway industry during the early twentieth century. The intricate details of the locomotive's design, from the curved contours of its body to the precise placement of its various components, are beautifully captured in this photograph. The image, with its rich tonal range and sharp focus, invites the viewer to explore the intricacies of this engineering marvel, providing a glimpse into the past and the evolution of railway technology.
