EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent Locomotive No. 3067, affectionately known as the Duchess of Teck, a proud member of the 3031 or Achilles class. Built in 1897 by the esteemed engineer William Dean, this remarkable 4-2-2 locomotive represents a true marvel of Victorian engineering. The Duchess of Teck was one of several locomotives belonging to the renowned Dean singles class, which revolutionized steam travel between 1891 and 1899. With its sleek design and powerful performance, this locomotive epitomizes an era when railways were at their peak. Stepping back in time through this image, we are transported to an age where steam power reigned supreme. The Duchess of Teck stands tall and regal against a backdrop that hints at her glorious past adventures on railway tracks across Great Britain. However, like all things in life, even mighty machines must eventually retire. After serving faithfully for seventeen years, Locomotive No. 3067 was withdrawn from service in 1914 but left behind an indelible mark on railway history. As we gaze upon this print from STEAM Museum of the GWR (Great Western Railway), we cannot help but feel a sense of awe and admiration for both the craftsmanship involved in creating such a masterpiece and for those who operated these incredible machines during their heyday.
