The railway locomotive was invented by a Cornishman called Richard Trevithick in February 1804. From small beginnings, this locomotive was responsible for the speed of industrialisation in many countries, for commuting, for tourism, for industrial progress in all fields. This book looks at the history of the steam locomotive.
