Improving image

[edit]

The image contains fairly unavoidable glass reflections so it would be reasonable to replace this if a better file became available. That said the quality of the depicted subject is fairly good, it is the surroundings that are more distracting. If a simple crop would cure most of the problems they I would have loaded that, however the image would be best improved by adjusting some reflections or blanking the background. Because of this I have uploaded the original uncropped image. Thankyou. Deirge Ó Dhaoinebeaga (talk) 20:58, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Possible inaccuracies and discrepancies in the Science Museum description

[edit]

The Science Museum has a description on their website with a suitable Creative commons license to enable copying to here. I would have done this but there are in my view a couple of actual or possible minor discrepancies if possible before doing so. For example if the model is 4' 8½" then the locomotive should be depicted in its pre-1856 state and I believe should not be a carrying the nmae "Alexandra" at that point. Thankyou.
