The COMPLETE History of STEAM

-----------------------
We talk about this history of steam, but haven't mentioned the most important invention of all, THE KETTLE. It's April, so this is a semi-April Fools, but also the key to the history of everything steam powered. I'm less familiar with the pioneering days of railways, and even less so with what came before, so I wanted to brush up my knowledge ahead of the Rail 200 celebrations next year.
Watt, Stephenson, Trevithick.. all your favourite steamy people are here for this one. I certainly learnt a lot, so I hope you do too with this one.

In relation to kettles, think you might do a complete history of coffee-pot engines?

Today in the school we had a tea with biscuits instead of learning.

Great video, but there's one bit of factual information that is omitted that is important to include. My dog (Gerald), is afraid of Kettles.

[@MidlandProductions]

great video as always!

I did not see this coming but he's not wrong about it using steam and I prefer the type of kettle my family has, A good old stove top whistling kettle and I liked your video on Mauretania as I'm also a fan of steam ships

The quirkiest contraption that's powered by steam I have seen so far probably has to be the "Dampfdraisine" which in the best way to describe it is a steam powered Wickham trolley without it's rectangular shape. There should be footage of it online.

Lovely to see a COMPLETE History

Britians most famous preserved steam engine: flying scotsman, an LNER A3 pacific built for express service and still survives to this day. Americans most famous preserved steam engine: A DARK BLACK STEAM BREATHING BEAST THAT PULLS MILLIONS OF TONS AND IS QUITE POSSIBLY ONE OF THE MOST STRONGEST ENGINES EVER, But as an excursion train :3

Puffball… teapot… TIN KETTLE!

The Gastown clock in Canada is a C weird one, driven, if I remember correctly, by a Steward 5 A engine & iron counterweight balls on a chain.

[@sudrianrailwaystudios676]

Great video, Max!

[@GeohToy]

Fantastic video! Really interesting history lesson. I can’t say I could really think of an absurd steam machine though… maybe a steamer for ironing clothes? 🤣 not more absurd but more unconventional compared to what’s shown here

You missed the Nuclear powered kettle. We live just down the road from the ones at Sizewell.
