EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Fowler Ploughing Engine 15442, affectionately named "Lion," manufactured by John Fowler & Co. of Leeds in 1920. The engine is a testament to the industrial prowess of the early 20th century, belonging to the type of ploughing engines that revolutionized agricultural work. The "Lion" is a compound engine, meaning it utilizes both high and low pressure to generate power, with a nominal horsepower of 16. This engine, registration number CT 4178, is a Class BB1 and is the companion to engine 15441, named "Tiger" and registered as CT 4177. The image captures the "Lion" in its prime during the 1970s, a time when these engines were still in use, albeit becoming increasingly rare. John Fowler & Co. of Leeds was a leading manufacturer of agricultural machinery, and the Fowler Ploughing Engines were renowned for their robustness and efficiency. The "Lion" and its companion engine, "Tiger," were likely used for large-scale farming operations, plowing fields and providing power to various agricultural machinery. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and power of these historic machines. The "Lion" stands proudly, its intricate details and powerful presence evident, a reminder of the ingenuity and innovation that shaped the agricultural industry.
