This photograph showcases Burrell General Purpose Engine number 2613, affectionately named Brenda, as it proudly stands at Bressingham Steam and Gardens on July 23, 1972. Registration number BJ 7694 adorns the side of this magnificent machine, a testament to its unique identity. The Burrell Company, based in Scotland, produced these versatile engines from 1907 to 1958. General Purpose Engine number 2613, with its distinctive design and robust build, was a popular choice for various applications, including hauling heavy loads and providing power for agricultural and industrial tasks. Brenda's presence at Bressingham Steam and Gardens, a renowned heritage site, highlights the importance of preserving these engineering marvels for future generations. The 1970s, a time of nostalgia and appreciation for the past, saw a surge in interest in steam transport and transportation. This photograph encapsulates the essence of that era, with Brenda's gleaming boiler and meticulously maintained engine components gleaming in the sunlight. The William Kerry Collection, from which this image is sourced, is a testament to the passion and dedication of collectors who have preserved and documented the history of steam transport. This photograph not only showcases the beauty and power of Burrell General Purpose Engine number 2613 Brenda but also serves as a reminder of the rich industrial heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us today.
