James Cudworth
James I'Anson Cudworth (12 January 1817 – 22 October 1899) was Locomotive Superintendent of the South Eastern Railway (SER). He served in this capacity from 1845–76. He is notable for designing a successful method for burning coal in steam locomotives without significant emission of smoke, and for introducing the 0-4-4T wheel arrangement to English railways.
==Personal life==
Cudworth was born in Darlington, County Durham on 12 January 1817, the second of three children born to William Cudworth and Mary I'Anson (born 18 November 1785, Darlington). His parents were Quakers, and had married in 1810; William Cudworth was a grocer and druggist, whilst Mary I'Anson's family name was of Scandinavian origin. James Cudworth's elder brother William was a civil engineer, and worked for the Stockton & Darlington Railway; William's son William John, also a civil engineer, worked for the North Eastern Railway.
James Cudworth married Priscilla Poulter on 15 May 1848, at the Friends meeting house, Dover, Kent but they had no children. After Cudworth's retirement, the couple moved to Reigate, Surrey in about 1879, where he died on 22 October 1899.
Cudworth Road in South Willesborough, a suburb of Ashford, Kent was named after him.
