George Stephenson is called by many the father of railways, not only in England, but throughout the world. Why? He did not build the first steam locomotive, he did not invent the rails. And he didn't invent the steam engine. So what did this "father" do? He studied what was invented before him, and built the world's best steam locomotive and the first real passenger railway. But above all, he "made" himself.
