The Last Days of Steam

[ffutures]

Just watching a Timeshift programme called The Last Days of Steam on BBC4, very interesting on the technology of steam engines and their post-war importance, and the construction of a new engine today. It's going to be repeated tomorrow

and I'd recommend it to anyone interested in this technology if you can find it as a podcast or on BBC America etc.

Not me - very interesting though, I vaguely remember a teacher saying something about this in the sixties, can't remember the context though.
