SR Lord Nelson Class No. 850: A Tribute to Maritime History in Steam This stunning watercolour painting by Reginald Mayes captures the essence of the iconic SR Lord Nelson Class No. 850 locomotive, previously known as Southern Railway No. 850. The steam engine, named after the famous British naval hero, Lord Nelson, is depicted in all its glory, billowing clouds of steam as it chugs along the railway tracks. The Southern Railway Company ordered ten Lord Nelson Class locomotives between 1935 and 1936, with No. 850 being the first in the series. These engines were designed to pull heavy express passenger trains and were known for their power and efficiency. The Lord Nelson Class locomotives were unique in their design, featuring a distinctive bulged boiler and a large, curved smokebox. Reginald Mayes, a renowned British painter, expertly captures the intricate details of the locomotive in this exquisite watercolour. The painting showcases the engine's ornate decorations, including the Lord Nelson crest on the tender and the intricate lettering on the side of the engine. The vibrant colours and bold brushstrokes bring the painting to life, transporting us back in time to the golden age of steam rail travel. The SR Lord Nelson Class No. 850 was retired from service in the late 1960s, but its legacy lives on through paintings like this one. This watercolour is not only a beautiful work of art but also a tribute to the rich history of steam rail travel and the iconic locomotives that made it possible.
