EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the bygone era of steam-powered transportation with this image of the Cab of the Knight of the Thistle, a legendary locomotive that once graced the rails of the Great Western Railway (GWR) in the United Kingdom. This vintage photograph, taken from an unidentified source and available through Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare glimpse into the intricacies of steam locomotive engineering and the daily workings of the railway system during the early 20th century. The Knight of the Thistle, a Class 2800 Tank Engine, was named in honor of the Most Ancient and Most Noble Order of the Thistle, an Order of Chivalry founded by King James VII of Scotland in 1687. This locomotive, with its distinctive green livery and ornate decorations, would have been a familiar sight on the Western Region lines of the GWR. The cab of the Knight of the Thistle is a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the railway engineers of the time. The intricate details of the control panel, the large firebox, and the expansive chimney are all evidence of the complex machinery that powered these steam locomotives. The image also reveals the cramped conditions that train drivers and firemen endured as they worked long hours to keep the trains running on time. This photograph is not only a fascinating historical record of a bygone era but also a visual feast for railway enthusiasts and anyone with an appreciation for the engineering marvels of the past. The Knight of the Thistle, with its proud history and iconic design, continues to captivate the imagination and inspire awe in all who behold it.
