Did you mean: Cyfarthfa Ironworks - Wikipedia
Unfortunately, I couldn't see reference to Richard Trevithick's Engine, but a Google search delivers the goods, such as: Richard Trevithick’s steam locomotive | Museum Wales
All the best,

At 6'4'', Bill is a tall chap, then again, when horizontal he is rather long and people often used to trip over him! . . . and so a nickname was born :)
