    Even engines in the Rainhill Trials had fusible plugs! San Pareil's even did its job!

    I would be interested to see your evidence supporting that statement, it might as an outside possibility be correct but I doubt it.

    Information came from 'Locomotives of The Great Eastern Railway' by C.Langley Aldridge.

    Twenty plus years ago one of My work collegues had been apprenticed at Swindon, and it was something of an ongoing joke to Him that I wouldn't understand outside cylinders or fusible plugs.
