UIS5078225 Stephenson's 'Rocket' locomotive, 1829. The locomotive represented by this model (scale 1:8) was designed by Robert Stephenson (1803-1859) and George Stephenson (1781-1848). It became famous after winning Rainhill Trials, a competition designed to find the most suitable locomotive for haulage on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway. This is the first version of the scale model of the Rocket and was built by Stuart Turner in 1909 from drawing prepared by E A Forward in the Science Museum. This model has an incorrect firebox and boiler details and as such should only be used for research purposes. Photographie. ©SSPL/Science Museum

UIS5092637 Goldsworthy Gurney, English inventor, 1829. Lithograph by W Sharp after a drawing by S C Smith. Sir Goldsworthy Gurney (1793-1875) was born near Padstow in Cornwall and originally trained and practiced as a surgeon. Whilst a chemistry lecturer at the Surrey Institute, he invented the oxy-hydrogen blowpipe, which in turn led him to discover the capabilities of lime as a powerful light-emitting substance when burned. Limelight was especially useful in lighthouses and for theatre footlights. Inspired by Stephenson's Rocket, Gurney also built a series of steam carriages, one of which in 1829 ran from London to Bath and back at the rate of 15 miles an hour.

UIS5092713 John Ericsson, inventor and marine engineer, 1865. Engraving by H Adlard of Captain John Ericsson (1803-1889). Born in Sweden, Ericsson moved to England in 1826 and set up as an engineering consultant. In 1829 he built an engine to rival George Stephenson's steam engine 'Rocket' (which had triumphed in the Rainhill Trials contest that year). On moving to the USA in 1839 Ericsson designed many warships including the 'Monitor' (1861), the first warship with an armoured turret, and 'The Destroyer' (1878), which could launch submarine torpedoes. ©SSPL/Science Museum

UIS5076072 John Rastrick, English engineer and inventor, c late 18th century. John Rastrick (1738-1826) was an engineer, millwright and maker of pumps and churns, but he is perhaps best known as the father of railway pioneer John Urpeth Rastrick (1780-1856), who built steam engines with John Hazledine to designs by Richard Trevithick. John Urpeth Rastrick was also one of the judges at the Rainhill Trials (1829), the competition arranged to judge the best locomotive to operate on George Stephenson's new Liverpool & Manchester Railway. 'Rocket', a locomotive designed and built by George's son Robert Stephenson was the eventual winner. ©SSPL/Science Museum

Engraving, drawn and engraved by Isaac Shaw Junior, showing crowds of onlookers beside the Moorish Arch at Edge Hill, Liverpool, observing the newly opened railway. George Stephenson became principal engineer of the Liverpool & Manchester Railway, the world's first intercity line, in 1826, and after a competition was organised in 1829 at Rainhill to determine the most efficient locomotive engine, Robert Stephenson's 'Rocket' was declared the winner.
