Hamilton and Truro

What a difference thirty-five years can make in locomotive design! GWR 3717 "City of Truro" was built in 1903 as one of the last engines with 19th-century inside cylinders and outside frames. LMS 6229 "Duchess of Hamilton" was built in 1938 as a modern streamlined Pacific from the height of the Art Deco era. At Railfest 2012, City of Truro and its tourist train passed the stationary Duchess of Hamilton.
