In 1961 a basically standard Velocette Venom roadster became the first and only 500cc motorcycle to average over 100 mph for 24 hours.
The company grew up a lot after World War II, when Velocette designed a 192cc water cooled, flat twin engine with side valves.
The James factory was bombed and badly damaged in 1940 but, incredibly, was rebuilt within three months and more than 6000 machines were eventually supplied for military use by the end of the war.
Built at the Fairfield Yard at Govan at a cost of about £1.5 million. The ship’s twin screws were driven by Parsons’ single-reduction geared turbines. Six Yarrow oil-fired water tube boilers supplied steam at 425 lb/psi and 725 degrees superheat. The main engines developed 30,000 shp on five boilers (leaving one in reserve) for a normal service speed of 21 knots.
The Tyne Bridge was officially opened in 1928 and cost £1,200,000 to build. Several Buildings had to be demolished to make way for the bridge – they included the Goat Inn, the Earl of Durham, the Ridley Arms, the Steamboat Inn, Ray’s lodging house, a powder mill, a pickle factory and a bank.
