Reverse description The reverse depicts Locomotion No. 1, the pioneering steam locomotive designed by George Stephenson, shown in left-facing profile hauling a tender and three open-topped passenger carriages. Engineer George Stephenson is portrayed standing prominently on the locomotive's side plate, while passengers are visible riding in the carriages behind, evoking the historic inaugural journey of the Stockton and Darlington Railway on 27 September 1825. The commemorative inscription THE JOURNEY THAT CHANGED THE WORLD arcs around the design, flanked by the bicentenary dates 1825–2025.
