1904 Original antique print titled "THE ELETRIFICATION OF THE LIVERPOOL-SOUTHPORT RAILWAY" published for THE ENGINEER.
The Engineer was founded in January 1856. It was established by Edward Charles Healey, an entrepreneur and engineering enthusiast with financial interests in the railways whose friends included Robert Stephenson and Isambard Kingdom Brunel. The journal was created as a technical magazine for engineers. The Engineer began covering engineering including inventions and patents during a high point of British economic manufacturing power. In the 19th century it also published stock prices of raw materials. Together with the contemporary Engineering Journal the work is considered a valuable historical resource for the study of British economic history.
