EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the majestic Burrell Showmans Road Locomotive Rajah (registration number G 6469, also known as number 3509), built in 1913 by Charles Burrell & Sons of Thetford, Norfolk. Powered by a 5 Nhp compound steam engine, this heavy agricultural machine is a true testament to the engineering prowess of its time. The Burrell Company, renowned for manufacturing high-quality stationary engines and tractors, produced this road locomotive to cater to the entertainment industry, providing mobile power for fairground attractions and shows. The Rajah, with its distinctive design and regal name, is a popular favorite among collectors and enthusiasts. Despite its impressive size and power, the Rajah was designed for maneuverability and versatility, making it an essential piece of machinery for traveling shows and exhibitions. The 1970s marked a period of renewed interest in these vintage vehicles, and the Rajah, with its gleaming steam engine and intricate details, is a stunning representation of the era. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back in time to an age when steam power reigned supreme and the thrill of the fairground was a cherished experience for generations.
