Summary

Description

Volute spring in buffer assembly, at the National Railway Museum, York, England. This buffer casing has been cut away for demonstration purposes to make the spring visible.

The volute spring designed for use in railway buffers was invented and first manufactured by John Brown of Atlas Works, Sheffield, England. The version in this picture was a 19th-century development of Brown's earlier version.
