These are some of the gears in the engine, which is turned over by an electric motor for display purposes. The engine is actually not original, as the original was lost when the ship was converted to a sailing ship in 1881. The new engine is a replica that appears operable, but which actually is a very convincing fake. It was constructed and financed by a coalition of companies and charities that included Rolls Royce.
