Hi, I tried to find the answer online but it was taking me so much time to find the answer that I decided to ask here.

I am a BEng myself, based in the UK, but don't know these figures.

In the 1800s, there were a lot of engineers without a Bachelor's degree.
The size of this group reduced in the 1900s as technology moved to diesel and electric trains.
