1842
In Northern England:
- 8th January 1842; completion of Victoria Tunnel to carry coal from Spital Tongues Colliery to the River Tyne.
- 8th September 1842; Micheal Smith jumped off the Wearmouth Bridge for a stunt. Amazingly he survived, but was arrested for begging as the crowds who watched started giving him money!
