Where boating and _steam power_ enthusiasts can find common ground. Steam hasn't been used in trains since the 50s.

Alex Jamieson Most train enthusiasts are much more interested in Steam than diesel or electric.
@user2C474 жыл бұрын
@Matthew Barrick Yet more than 99% of locomotives are either diesel powered or connected to the power grid. Steam locomotives are only so interesting because there's so few of them. Steam power is also not restricted to trains, and includes anything powered by steam, including boats, trains, and lineshafts. I will not continue wasting my time on this pointless argument over something insignificant.
@Ep3394 жыл бұрын
User 2C47 You corrected OP saying steam POWER, implying that you disagree with the statement that steam LOCOMOTIVE enthusiasts can find common ground with boating enthusiasts. Don’t act like this argument is pointless and go off listing random facts that we already agree with. Either your grammar or original intentions of your first comment were wrong.

Engine/prop well balanced, even flat out engine doesn’t sound as though it’s stressed,......revs sound low. Whole thing is a work of art. Congratulations, could watch it all day long, it’s SO relaxing.

The owner, the builder, the engine, and the boat, are a perfect match. The shape of the wave on that hull shows a perfect wave motion for that length of the hull. The noise from the engine adds up to the romance of the situation and serenity of the amalgamation of the human and machine and natural environment state. My sincere and heartiest congratulations.

I think steam is becoming a viable power plant again, especially as you can use many different sources of fuel to heat the boiler. My father was always building small working steam engines. I kick my ass now for not paying more attention. It would be great, if say, community colleges started offering courses on steam. Great job.

I've been in the steam business since 1981. As stated, still used for a majority of electrical production as well as large district heating locations. I don't understand the comment about steam being half as efficient as diesel. Steam is merely the energy transfer mechanism, not a fuel. Compare fuel costs and energy transfer costs. But this is simply a very cool demonstration of steam power in a very sweet wood boat.
