EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the majesty and power of No. 6000 King George V, a 4-6-0 King Class locomotive built by the Great Western Railway (GWR) in 1927. Named after the then-reigning monarch, this locomotive was a symbol of engineering excellence and royal pride. The King Class locomotives were designed by the legendary locomotive engineer, Charles Collett, as part of his ambitious programme to modernize the GWR fleet. No. 6000 was one of the last of the 132 engines built in this class, and it showcases the pinnacle of Collett's design. The photograph captures the locomotive in its prime, with its polished brass fittings gleaming in the sunlight and its powerful steam plume billowing in the background. The intricate details of the engine's design are on full display, from the elegant curves of the boiler to the precise lines of the cylinders and wheels. The King Class locomotives were renowned for their power and efficiency, able to haul heavy trains up steep gradients with ease. They were also known for their smooth ride and quiet operation, making them a favorite among passengers and crew alike. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of steam locomotives and the engineering marvels of the past. It transports us back to a time when travel was an adventure, and the roar of a steam engine was a sound that signaled the start of a journey. The STEAM Museum of the Great Western Railway is proud to preserve this piece of railway history for future generations to enjoy and be inspired by.
