In 1898, after Churchward had become Dean's assistant, a solitary 4-4-0PT was built at Swindon (Lot no. 114, works no. 1702), and was the first GWR locomotive with pannier tanks. It had 4 ft 7 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (1,410 mm) driving wheels, and was intended as the prototype of a new class for working over the Metropolitan Railway, but was both unstable ...
It is based on the Mainline model with revised body tooling to complement a completely new chassis design that allows the boiler backhead to be modelled. In British N gauge, the first model was the Langley whitemetal kit, designed to fit the Graham Farish 94xx/general purpose tank chassis. The next was the Peco ready-to-run model, introduced in ...
The Great Western Railway (GWR) 2301 Class or Dean Goods Class is a class of British 0-6-0 steam locomotives. Swindon Works built 260 of these goods locomotives between 1883 and 1899 to a design of William Dean .
Number 3046 Lord of the Isles has enjoyed a certain amount of celebrity, having been chosen as the prototype for a Tri-ang model locomotive. Since then the engine has also been modelled by Brio and Matchbox. In 2006, Hornby also produced a limited edition of the same model, this time bearing the name Lorna Doone. Hornby also produced Royal ...

The Méker burner heating power can be around 3.6 kW using liquefied petroleum gas. [2] Flame temperatures of up to 1,100–1,200 °C (2,000–2,200 °F) are achievable. Compared with a Bunsen burner, the lower part of its tube has more openings with larger total cross-section, admitting more air and facilitating better mixing of air and ...
Burning all the oxygen delivered by the compressor stages would create temperatures (3,700 °F (2,040 °C)) high enough to significantly weaken the internal structure of the engine, but by mixing the combustion products with unburned air from the compressor at (600 °F (316 °C)) a substantial amount of oxygen (fuel/air ratio 0.014 compared to ...
The Teclu burner provides better mixing of air and fuel and can achieve higher flame temperatures than the Bunsen burner. [9] [10] Meker burner – The lower part of its tube has more openings with larger total cross-section, admitting more air and facilitating better mixing of air and gas. The tube is wider and its top is covered with a wire grid.
