Remarks & Notes 
At the Open Air Museum at Beamish, in the North of England, there is the Pockerley Waggonway, which recreates a railway at the transition from wagonway to steam railway in 1825. There is a short length of track, and the locomotives are housed and maintained in a "great shed" inspired by lost buildings from Timothy Hackworth’s Shildon railway works and incorporating some material from Robert Stephenson and Company’s Newcastle works. Museum visitors to the can ride in an unsprung carriage behind one of three replica steam locomotives on the railway. Here we see the 1975-built replica of George Stephenson's Locomotion No 1 designed for the Stockton and Darlington Railway in 1825.
