This is film has been a pleasure for me to make as it concerns one of the most loved and enduring parts of the history of my home town of Barrow-in-Furness.
Furness Railway No. 3, more fondly known as ‘Old Coppernob,’ was one of the first four engines purchased by the Furness Railway Company in the mid 1840s. It is the only survivor of the four and is kept at The National Railway Museum in York. These engines hauled all the traffic on the railway over the first years of operation.
This is the story of Furness Railway No. 3 from its arrival by sea into a still quite rural Barrow and on to the present day.

(The Furness Railway opened for goods and mineral traffic between Kirkby Slate Wharf and Barrow Pier on 3rd June 1846. Passenger traffic commenced on 24th August 1846 between Piel Pier and Dalton and on the Barrow and Kirkby lines in connection with steamer sailings between Piel Pier and Fleetwood.)
