The Tom Thumb

1 The early locomotives were small and slow and they were not powerful.

Besides, the rails on which they ran broke very often.

So many people did not take them seriously.

2 But in 1830.

Peter Cooper, an American, constructed a steam loco which could develop a higher speed than the other engine.

The locomotive was so small and light that his inventor called it the Tom Thumb.

3. The first run of the Tom Thumb was quite successful.

The locomotive travelled a15 - mile distance in one hour and 12 minutes to the delight of its inventor and 36 passengers.

But the end of the travel was not so happy as the beginning.

4. On the way back the inventor wanted to show that his loco could run much quicker than a carriage drawn by a horse.

The Tom Thumb ran so fast that soon it was really ahead.

Of the carriage.

Suddenly, something broke in the engine and the locomotive slowed down.

The horse ran fast with the passengers looking triumphant and happy.

Найти прилагательные и наречия в сравнительной и превосходной степени в тексте : The steam locomotive In 1808 Richard Trevithick, an Englishman made an attempt to use steam power to draw passenger and freight trains.

He demonstrated his working model in London.

People looked at his little locomotive with great interest when it ran on a circular track of iron rails.

For a shilling the public could travel in a carriage drawn by the steam engine.

It developed a speed of 12 mph.

Many people did not believe it was possible to make steam engines suitable for service.

However, in 1829 George Stephenson, an English inventor and engineer, built a successful steam locomotive which he called the «Rocket».

This locomotive was much smaller and lighter than the steam engines developed later on, and it was much slower.

Nevertheless, it could draw a small train of loaded cars on the railway and developed a speed of 13 mph.

The «Rocket» is now demonstrated in the British Museum.
