	Timothy Hackworth
		Hackworth was born in Wylam, Northumberland, on 22nd December 1786 and died in Shildon, Co Durham, on 7th July 1850.
		Reluctantly Hackworth agreed, and thus supervised the construction of the first locomotives at this works: it was Hackworth who suggested coupling the wheels of S and D locomotives No 1 Locomotion and its three successors with outside rods and return cranks instead of chains.
		Hackworth's next locomotive was the Wilberforce class 0-6-0 of which six were built in 1831-2.

	Timothy Hackworth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Timothy Hackworth (December 22, 1786 – July 7, 1850) was a steam locomotive mechanical engineer who lived in Shildon, County Durham, England and worked with George Stephenson on the Stockton and Darlington Railway.
		He was the inventor of many early steam locomotives, including the Sans Pareil, which took part in the Rainhill Trials in 1829 Although Hackworth's locomotive was heavy, it was allowed to take part, but failed when a cylinder cracked.
		His design in 1827 for the Royal George used a steam blastpipe in the chimney to draw the fire, and he is usually acknowledged as the inventor of this concept.

		Hackworth remained in Shildon the rest of his life, where he devised practical solutions to many unprecedented problems posed by the first railways, including a double-acting winding gear for inclines, and the robust ‘plug wheel’ for steam engines.
		There is evidence to support the belief that Timothy Hackworth was the driving force behind the ultimate success of the locomotive and without him the SandDR may have faced financial ruin.
		“Timothy Hackworth is original, is actually of himself improving the locomotive in essentials as no other man is doing, and is incomparably in advance of George Stephenson in everything which may be truly said to lay claim to distinction.

		Hackworth, Braithwaite and Ericsson were disputing the revised conditions for the trials, issued by the judges only the previous morning.
		Hackworth asked for a second trial, but the judges were not impressed with the design of Sans Pareil and refused.
		Hackworth and his supporters felt that he had been given a raw deal at Rainhill, for all that Sans Pareil was an obsolescent design and did not fulfil the conditions that had been laid down prior to the trial.

		Hackworth had been involved in the production of several locomotives including the Puffing Billy, the Locomotion and the Royal George.
		However, it was eventually agreed to let Timothy Hackworth show what his new locomotive could do.
		The furnace and boiler are of simple construction, and of unquestionable efficiency; but their great size, and the large supply of fuel and water they require, render them but ill-adapted to the purposes of a locomotive engine.

	The Saga Of The SAMSON: CANADA'S OLDEST LOCOMOTIVE
		They were built by Timothy Hackworth, at New Shildon, Durham, England, and were completed in August 1838, arriving at Pictou late in November or early in December.
		To anyone who is familiar with Hackworth's practice, it is obvious that he had nothing whatever to do with this engine as it is quite unlike anything he ever built; especially in certain important details such as the type of boiler, wheels, cylinders and valve gear.
		The most ridiculous argument is one advanced by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, that after the Hackworth works at New Shildon, were closed, a name plate bearing the name "Albion" was found, which evidently proved to the finder's satisfaction that Hackworth had once built an engine of ----it name for the Albion Mines Railway.

		In 1813 Stephenson became aware of attempts by William Hedley and Timothy Hackworth, at Wylam Colliery, to develop a locomotive.
		Where Stephenson's locomotive differed from those produced by John Blenkinsop, William Hedley and Timothy Hackworth, was that the gears did not drive the rack pinions but the flanged wheels.
		Stephenson recruited Timothy Hackworth, one of the engineers who had helped William Hedley to produce Puffing Billy, to work for the company.

		The locomotive is said to have been made by Hackworth at his Soho Foundry, Shildon ca.
		Although parts were removed sometime after its retirement as a locomotive, and the remains are quite corroded, 'Braddyll' is rare because among other things, it does not appear to have been subject to any major alterations since built, nor has it been restored; what material of the locomotive is present is likely to be 'original'.
		While 'Braddyll' has many features of the 'Hackworth School' of locomotive building, the differences mean that it is possible that it was not built at Soho Foundry, but by one of the other local builders, including Hackworth's brother, Thomas.
