Transcribed by 'Steve'. Geo. THE WESTMORLAND GAZETTE SATURDAY 25th JULY 1863 KESWICK There was quite a commotion here on Thursday last, in consequence of the arrival of a locomotive engine from Cockermouth intended for the railway works, drawn through the town by fourteen horses, and decorated with evergreens and banners, headed by the Keswick Drum and Fife Band playing " See the Conquering Hero come." Being the first locomotive ever in Keswick both young and old turned out to have a look (many of them for the first time) at so wonderful a piece of machinery. The engine was put upon the rails at Browfoot Cutting, and is intended to draw the empty waggons up the incline from near Crosthwaite Church. Steve
