EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Burrell Showman's Road Locomotive No. 3483, affectionately known as Perseverance II, as it proudly stands at Harewood House on August 28, 1972. Registration number WB 9110 adorns the side of this magnificent steam engine, which was a popular sight during the 1970s transport scene. The Burrell Company, based in Scotland, is renowned for its high-quality steam-powered road locomotives, which were widely used for various purposes, including showmans' engines for fairground attractions. Perseverance II is a testament to the engineering prowess of the Burrell Company, with its powerful and intricately designed steam engine. The photograph captures the essence of the 1970s, with the steam engine's gleaming metalwork contrasting against the lush green landscape and the clear blue sky. The steam engine's large wheels, intricate details, and the billowing smoke stack add to its charm and allure. Perseverance II's presence at Harewood House was a rare treat for visitors, who were drawn to the engine's raw power and the nostalgic appeal of the steam age. The photograph serves as a reminder of a bygone era, when steam engines ruled the roads and transport was a more romantic and mechanical affair. This photograph is part of The William Kerry Collection, which showcases a wide range of transport-related images from the past. It is a valuable addition to any collection of transport history or nostalgia, and a reminder of the fascination that steam engines continue to hold for people of all ages.
