Historic Steam Locomotive Cutaway Diagram - Engineering Blueprint & Mechanical Anatomy #164973 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white engraved cutaway drawing illustrates a classic early steam locomotive, likely from the mid-to-late 1800s, showcasing its internal mechanics including the firebox, boiler, steam dome, cylinder assembly, connecting rods, and driving wheels. Each component is precisely labeled-such as “Blast Regulator,” “Slide Valve Box,” and “Eccentric”-highlighting Victorian-era engineering precision and educational intent. The image serves as both a historical artifact and a functional schematic for understanding steam propulsion systems.
