    Michael Bailey and Peter Davidson discuss the findings of their "dig" on the preserved locomotive "Invicta"

    Michael Bailey authored a work reviewing the surviving pre 1850's locomotives and replicas based on them which I would recommend to anyone interested in the era: 'Loco Motion: The World's Oldest Steam Locomotives' ( History Press 2014 ). It covers locomotives outside the British Isles in addition to the home based ones.
