I am curious as to why you say that " the "Stephens  (sic) Rocket Project" was an expensive  disaster.
 
George Stephenson, (The Father of Railways) and his son Robert, designed the Rocket which won the Rainhill trials in 1829. 
His "standard gauge" track is used worldwide today.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

You ever tried to get the exhaust injector to "pick up" on that old camel?

Strange thing to say because the same paragraph reads:

So is there still a problem that needs to overcome OR is it sure the work will begin in November.

Its one or the other.

 

The work will begin in November despite the ongoing problem

When I was learning to "fire" steam locomotives on the West Somerset Railway back in the 1980s, the fellow who taught me, a colourful character who had been a BR(S) fireman at Nine Elms shed, always referred to the engine, if we were having a rough trip, as a "bl**dy old camel!"
