I remember these from when I was a boy during WW2. A local brewery used them to deliver beer to a pub in our village. Less scary than the Shire horses that delivered to the other pub.

And what about the old man before the folks using this? And the old men before those old men? I mean why stop at this highly sophisticated truck compared to horse and carriage before? Or just horse before? Or simply walking? Yea every previous generation is "tough" cause they didn't have what the new generation has. Which means the folks using this steam truck were pampered in relation to those before steam. People use to walk miles, these guys just ride in a steam truck. Yea, roll coal, blah blah, they're all pussies compared to our origins.

@@sacr3 - I make historical men's clothing for a hobby. I recently bought a couple of old very early electric irons just use as fabric weights. I was amazed to find out they both still work. so I naturally tried ironing with them. Its PHYSICALLY HARD WORK - they weigh 2.7kg - 6lb each. You plug one in whilst you iron with the other and then switch. Its a GENUINE workout ironing a few shirts - and this was the MODERN IMPROVEMENT on the old irons you put hot coals inside, this was EASY in the day. On the up side - I have never had shirts as well ironed - the creases are like a razor blade - 6lb of hot metal pressing on your shirt fabric makes very flat shirts LOL. But its a real shock how much hard work it really is.

I'm a mechanical engineer myself and I really cannot express how much I adore and revere early British engineering such as this. So, I'd just like to express my heartfelt congratulations and my sincerest gratitude to all involved for keeping such a beautiful vehicle 'alive' and running. Needless to say, the most fitting tribute to such a glorious machine is that despite her age, she'll easily outlast anything that has been built between the early '70s and the present day.

Cleaned the oil filter and air filter(they are not a replaceable type) fitted two used batteries and drove it 1800km home. Aside from the alternator seizing up and a headlight burning out.

If steam engine gulps up some water it just extinguishes, you can re-ignite it with some dry coal. If a petrol engine gulps up some water, you gonna need a new petrol engine.
@94XJ5 жыл бұрын
Mi 28 If water goes into the cylinder(s) while its running, you'll have the same issues as a petrol engine. That's why steam engines typically have some kind of bleed valve to open while they get started allowing water that pooled after the last run to be ejected safely without bending the rod. I think Pete's point is how long it would take to dry out the fire box, re-ignite it and bring the steam back up to pressure to get going again. I sucked up a little water into my Jeep's engine more than once. It only took 5 to 10 min to pull all the plugs, crank it a few times, clean the water out of the distributor cap and reassemble.
@michaelbuckers5 жыл бұрын
The flood water wouldn't go into cylinders of a steam engine, the intake is sealed off from the environment. The drain valves are there because steam is water gas, and it always fills up the cylinders, so when the engine stops for a long time all of that gas water condenses into liquid water, which needs to be drained. You don't need to dry out the fire box. You just need to evacuate the water and re-ignite it using dry coal. The burning coal would quickly dry up the firebox and the wet coal as well. As for your truck, I guess you got lucky and it only sucked a tiny bit of water at a time, just enough to stop spark gaps from working but not to cause compression damage. Flooding a running engine normally results in its complete destruction.

I'm afraid I'm gonna need one of those. Where can I sign my soul to the devil... Because I would to own that. I'd drive it to pickup my kids at school and to get groceries. I don't care if it takes 2 hours to fire up I'd do it anyway!.

You could modify a modern internal combustion engine into a single action steam engine. You could make it into double expansion engine by connecting primary cylinder exhaust to two secondary cylinder intakes. You'd need a modified valve timing rod, to open intake on every downstroke and open exhaust on every upstroke. Water pipe boiler is very easy to make yourself and it produces high efficiency superheated steam with no extra apparatus required. If you make it running on liquid fuel, you could make an automatic furnace that keeps appropriate steam pressure by starting and shutting down depending on the pressure.
