1920 Garrett steam traction engine (number 33827) about to be offloaded from it's transporter.
Upper Killay, Swansea.
23rd July 2011.
Completed in 1928, the two Worthing Simpson triple expansion engines pumped 19 million gallons of water a day each, to a head of 200 feet.
The Kempton Park water treatment works were opened in 1897 with two holding reservoirs and 12 slow sand filter beds. Two Lilleshall triple expansion engines were used to pump water from the Thames to the reservoirs and three more to pump it to Cricklewood in North London. Steam came from 6 Lancashire boilers.
In 1902 the New River Company was acquired by the Metropolitan Water Board and the size of the site increased. By 1963 the site employed 144 men (most to polish the metal work, it would seem) and pumped 86 million gallons per day.
The Lilleshall engines where scrapped in 1968 but the Worthington Simpson Triples stayed in use until 1980. Electric pumps now run in the Lilleshall House and pump 75 million gallons a day with just 14 staff.

Naugatuck Fire was dispatched shortly before 9 a.m. this morning (12/8) for fire and smoke coming under the siding of a 3 family house on Terrace Ave.
The first due Engine and Ladder found a fire on the exterior front of the structure apparently caused by a roofing crew that was attempting to clear snow and ice from their work area by using a torch which had ignited the roofing material as well as the wood beneath the siding at the roof line.
The aerial ladder was set up and the area on fire was opened up and quickly extinguished. The crews checked the interior of the affected structure and the attic for extensions, of which none were found.
They also inspected another section of the roof that had also been de-iced to determine whether any other spot fires existed but the searches proved negative.
The quick response kept the structural damage to a minimum and none of the residents were displaced by the fire.
