Excerpt from The Model Locomotive Engineer, Fireman, and Engine-Boy: Comprising a Historical Notice of the Pioneer Locomotive Engines and Their Inventors; With a Project for the Establishment of Certificates of Qualification in the Running Service of Railways
A great philosopher has said that three things are essential to perform anything well: namely, Models, Rules, and Practice. In view of the granting of certificates to locomotive engineers, firemen, and engine-boys, I have endeavoured to place before them models of self-help and self-reliance rules that have proved themselves correct a thousand times over and practice of the best possible railway service.
