EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print depicts the North Star locomotive, a mechanical marvel of the Victorian era, painted by the skilled hand of F. Moore and held in the esteemed collections of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE). The North Star, a Class N2 0-6-2T tank locomotive, was designed and built by the North Eastern Railway (NER) in 1903. This locomotive was renowned for its impressive performance, capable of hauling heavy loads over long distances with great efficiency. The North Star's distinctive livery, featuring a large, glowing star on its tender, was a source of pride for the NER and its engineers. The star symbolized the company's commitment to navigating the challenging terrain of the North East of England and providing reliable transportation services to its passengers and freight customers. This print offers a glimpse into the rich history of railway engineering, showcasing the intricate details of the North Star's design and the artistry of F. Moore's brushstrokes. The Institution of Mechanical Engineers, as the oldest professional engineering institution in the world, holds an unparalleled collection of historical engineering artifacts and documents, including this exquisite print of the North Star locomotive. The North Star locomotive stands as a testament to the ingenuity and determination of the engineers of the past, who paved the way for the advancements in transportation technology that continue to shape our world today. This print serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our engineering heritage and celebrating the achievements of those who came before us.
