 Treasures - Puffing Billy (1813)
Puffing Billy was the first locomotive to operate as a commercial success using the adhesion of a smooth wheel on a smooth rail.
It was built in 1813 by William Hedley (1779-1843) to haul loaded coal wagons at 6-8 km/h (3-5 mph) from Wylam Colliery, in Northumberland, to the River Tyne, 8 km (5 miles) away.
The track was damaged by the locomotive's weight so it was soon rebuilt on eight wheels but later reverted to four, perhaps after stronger cast-iron edge rails were laid in about 1828.
