Railways

The “rocket” A long time ago in 1829 two brothers George and Robert Stephenson built a locomotive called the rocket! It was capable of pulling a small train at the unheard speed of 39 kilometers per hour. They had built something that had never been able to travel so fast.

Steam Engine The steam engine was a great Invention created by Thomas Savery. They were used for shipping cargo to build buildings or other things.

Dangerous job Building the railways was a very dangerous job and many people died doing it. The guys who did the job got very little pay. So not very many people wanted to build the railways.

How it helped the Industrial Revolution It helped the industrial revolution by having trains going all over the place bringing cargo and food for people in Europe.
