Great engineering managers-George churchward. II

摘要

This paper discusses the work of George Churchward from the time he succeeded William Dean at the Swindon Locomotive and Carriage Department in 1902. Once in charge of all engineering design and development at Swindon, George Churchward was to produce a range of engines that left all others in the UK far behind. When he finally retired, he inspired some disciples who were to take steam locomotive design to its zenith of prestige in the 1930s.
