INSIDE STEAM

if you've ever wondered what makes the steam traction engine tick, then this video explains it all.
Traction engines - in all of their forms, can be seen at any of the hundreds of steam rallies held across the country every summer.
The most recognisable form - the steam road roller, is joined by other examples that were all built in Britain's great Industrial Age for a special purpose such as ploughing or to provide the power for travelling fairground rides.
It's not all just coal and water - everything from the injectors to steering are studied in this special insight into these surviving 'grand old ladies' of our working past.
