EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Goldsworthy Gurney's Steam Carriage, one of the most successful models of its kind, built in the historic city of Bath, Britain, in 1827. With fifteen of these steam-powered vehicles produced, this technological marvel underwent testing by the War Office, averaging an impressive speed of 15 miles per hour on the round trip between London and Bath. The Steam Carriage, a testament to the ingenuity of the Industrial Revolution, was a significant advancement in land transportation at the time. Its success came from its ability to travel efficiently on both dry roads and icy conditions, making it a versatile mode of transport. The War Office's approval of Goldsworthy Gurney's Steam Carriage marked a pivotal moment in transportation history. The vehicles were not only faster than traditional horse-drawn carriages but also offered a more consistent travel experience, regardless of the weather.
