It is a public railway that runs 13.5 miles (21.7 km) from the Cinque Port town of Hythe via Dymchurch, St. Mary's Bay, New Romney, and Romney Sands to Dungeness, close to Dungeness nuclear power station and Dungeness Lighthouse. "Hercules" is one of the steam locomotives on the RH&DR. It is a 4-8-2 Mountain-type locomotive and was built in 1927 by Davey Paxman for the RH&DR. The locomotive is notable for its large size compared to the other engines on the railway. The Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway is a popular tourist attraction, offering scenic rides through the Kent countryside, and it has been operating since the 1920s. If you have specific questions about "Hercules" or the RH&DR, feel free to ask!

It was developed by Clayton& Shuttleworth, an engineering company located in Lincoln, England, that was established in 1842. ¹² The company began building portable steam engines in 1845, and added threshing machines to their range in 1849. These products formed the core of their business, and resulted in Clayton & Shuttleworth becoming one of the leading manufacturers of such products. ¹ The first traction engine was created in 1859, when Thomas Aveling modified a Clayton & Shuttleworth portable engine, which had to be hauled from job to job by horses, into a self-propelled one. This alteration was made by fitting a long driving chain between the crankshaft and the rear axle.
