Hackworth's Locomotives (Inc. Sans Pareil)

This mod consists of a small collection of locomotives by the early locomotive engineer Timothy Hackworth.

Known nowadays for being the Not-Stephenson guy at the Rainhill Trials, Hackworth was at the forefront of locomotive development. He worked on the Puffing Billy (the oldest locomotive still in existence) and also built the *'Royal George', the most powerful locomotive in the world at that point

Hackworth also built the first locomotive to run in Nova Scotia, Canada. Samson was similar in construction to 'Royal George' but had a longer boiler and was even more strongerer.

Timothy Hackworth entered a locomotive into the famous Rainhill Trials, the powerful and strong 'Sans Pareil'. This locomotive was the true competitor to The Rocket, and could muster up to 30mph when running on its own

In 2002, a reconstruction trial was run at Carrog on the Llangollen Railway in Wales, and it showed that, if Sans Pareil's piston didn't explode, it MAY have even won!

This pack includes:
'Sans Pareil' 0-4-0
'Wilberforce' 0-6-0
'Coronation' 0-6-0

Anyway, here's some early locomotives. More will get added.

*I plan on adding Royal George and Samson in an update in the future.
