EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the vintage charm of Burrell Showmans Road Locomotive 3912, affectionately named "Dragon," produced by Charles Burrell & Sons of Thetford, Norfolk in 1921. The locomotive, with registration number CO 4485, is a scenic compound type, featuring compound cylinders and an 8 NHP (Nominal Horsepower) engine. The image captures the essence of the 1970s-1980s era, as the "Dragon" sits proudly on display, its intricate details and ornate design elements shining in the light. The locomotive's name, "Dragon," is elegantly written on the side, adding to its unique character. Charles Burrell & Sons of Thetford were renowned for their high-quality engineering and innovative designs, and the "Dragon" is a testament to their expertise. This locomotive was not built for commercial use but rather for the enjoyment of showmans and collectors. The "Dragon" is a rare and valuable piece of transportation history, and this photograph provides a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when steam-powered locomotives were the epitome of engineering marvels. The image is a must-have for railway enthusiasts, historians, and anyone with an appreciation for the beauty and craftsmanship of vintage machinery.
