An interesting article from 1884 regarding the 1829 and 1830 Rockets.
The Project Gutenberg eBook of Scientific American Supplement, OCTOBER 25, 1884 (http://www.gutenberg.org/files/11734/11734-h/11734-h.htm#3)
I have never been a real steam buff but I have always thought the '29 Rocket to be a visual delight. Exposure to the locomotives in Prague has piqued my interest.
