As well as having one of the most unusual middle names of all time, Brunel is famous for his technological achievements in the field of engineering. However, as well as having very broad interests, his most outstanding feature was his all round ability within each of the endeavours he undertook. If we consider his Great Western Railway, he designed the track layout, the track itself, the rolling stock, the tunnels, the bridges, and the ship to take passengers to the United States from Bristol at the end of the line (the Great Western). He even designed the lamp-posts for the stations, was a director of the station hotel at Paddington, and when the going got tough, was not above getting down to doing some actual digging on the line himself. He was truly a great all-round engineer.
