Image description

Richard Trevithick, English inventor, 1816. Oil painting by John Linnell (1792-1882) of Richard Trevithick (1771-1833), the first person to use high pressured steam to drive an engine. Until 1800 the weakness of existing boilers had restricted all engines to being atmospheric ones. Trevithick set about making a cylindrical boiler which could withstand steam at higher pressures. This new engine was well suited to driving vehicles. In 1804 Trevithick was responsible for the first successful railway locomotive. ©SSPL/Science Museum
