The maximum speed reached 30 mph (~48 km/h). Brilliant victory of Stephenson's "Rocket" made her perhaps the most famous mechanism in the history of technology.

The steam locomotive "Locos No. 1" has survived to the present time. It was used until 1857, and now it is exhibited in the railway Museum in Darlington. Portrait of George Stephenson Portrait of George Stephenson was placed on the banknotes of series E the State Bank in the UK worth 5 pounds.
