The Iron Maiden Punk James Bolam and Jack SmethurstAn original release UK Quad poster for the 1962 British comedy The Iron Maiden centred on the somewhat unlikely subject of traction engines. The traction engine featured in the film was a John Fowler & Co. 7nhp showmans road locomotive. The film Iron Maiden was an attempt to replicate the success that 1953s British comedies, Genevieve and The Titfield Thunderbolt had had with stories revolving around vintage cars and steam rollers respectively.
