Timothy Hackworth, "Sans Pareil", 1829

Timothy Hackworth (December 22, 1786 - July 7, 1850) was an English steam locomotive engineer. Sans Pareil is a steam locomotive he built which took part in the 1829 Rainhill Trials on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway. Sans Pareil had two cylinders, mounted vertically at the opposite end to the chimney, and driving one pair of driving wheels directly - the other pair were driven via connecting rods, in the typical steam locomotive fashion. It was excluded from the prize because it was slightly over the maximum permitted weight. After the trials, the Liverpool and Manchester Railway bought Sans Pareil as well as Rocket. It was subsequently leased to the Bolton and Leigh Railway where it ran until 1844.
