The London Telegraph lauds locomotive engineers for safeguarding hundreds of lives. It notes travelers depend on their skill, lamp maintenance, water, signals, and road clearance, with signal boxes and tunnel mouths kept in intense, monotone duty. The piece contrasts female emotion with male strength in love and duty. It mentions a pension granted in 1790 to William Penn’s heirs, now paid to Col. William Stuart, and reflects on society’s failure to practice what it knows.
