Train Facts

The history of steam trains goes back 200 years to Stephensons Rocket and James Watt steam engines. The first steam train was in 1804, made by Cornishman Richard Trevithick (1771-1833), who learnt his craft in Cornish tin mines, built his Penydarren tram road engine for a line in South Wales whose primitive wagons were pulled, slowly and laboriously, by horses. Things moved on from there to the Golden Age of Steam.

Steam trains are loved for so many reasons:

Classic shapes

Power and exhilaration of the train, The mallard clocked 126mph in 1938. Itwas built in Doncaster and designed by Sir Nigel Gresley

The personality of the train, known by its name. (Being a Scot I love the Flying Scotsman. This ran the east Coast line from London to Edinburgh. The locomotive was built in 1923 costing £7944)

Charm of the period

Luxury travel, travelling first class in that nostalgic era just oozes style!

Beautiful scenery all along the scenic east coast

Old railway stations with the big clock, wooden station, waiting room, tea room and polite staff

Bridges and Viaducts, stunning works of construction which are a testament to the engineers of the time

Train Artists

The artists who wonderfully, and accurately, recreate the steam trains jigsaw puzzles set in detailed backgrounds. Some of the artists such as Malcolm Root, and Barry Freeman are members of the Guild of Railway artists. Also Trevor Mitchell, Geoff Nutkins and Kevin Walsh. Their work on each Steam Train Jigsaw Puzzle is truly excellent!

Their works include many, many fabulous Steam Train jigsaws. The pictures have Steam Trains thundering towards Cornwall, arriving in a nostalgic railway station, and collages of wonderful trains.

The nostalgic scenes show detailed trains, and the cars, people and trucks of the time. The detail is perfect.

Puzzle History

Early indications in the history of jigsaw puzzles are of puzzles from European Map Makers in the 1700s who dissected maps. These would have been rudimentary Jigsaw Puzzles as we know it today. Many believe John Spilsbury, a London map maker, was the person who created the first puzzle from a map of Europe cut along country boundary lines.
