Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Furness Railway No.3, Old Coppernob, is a preserved English steam locomotive. It acquired its nickname because of the copper cladding to its dome-shaped haystack firebox. It was built in 1846 by Bury, Curtis, and Kennedy of Liverpool, a company with which the F.R.'s first locomotive superintendent, James Ramsden, had been an apprentice. It is a four-coupled version of Edward Bury's popular design of the period, with iron bar frames and inside cylinders, and is historically significant as the only survivor in the United Kingdom of this type.
