To me the only technology that rivals the ingenuity in these machines is that of the mighty Rocketdyne F-1 engines on the bottom of the Saturn V rocket.
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.
With technology comes easier work, less physical work. Men back then would be strong, but also stink and be exposed to all sorts of harmful things because they just didn't know any better.
I love history I love classic cars omg! This is just on another level, to be able to see this tday in colour not black and white, the quality and the build , the mechanics of it and most of all the standard of British engineering back in those days, this clearly shows the value and the strength of made in England 🏴, simply amazing!

Johnny Rossman It was probably pressed into service during the war. It would have still been relatively young, and although diesel was in short supply and rationed we had abundant coal, it would have made perfect sense to use this for its intended purpose.

I saw the footage of driving through the puddles and flooded street and realized that those could really ruin your day in a steam-powered truck like this.
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.
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.
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.
4N5W3R5 torrefied biomass, which is more energy efficient than coal and releases fewer greenhouse gasses into the air than coal and oil, thus if a steam Lorry were powered with such, it would actually be more environmentally friendly

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.

for some reason, every time i see a steam engine it gives me chills thru my spine. i must appreciate the effort of these people for keeping these pioneer machines alive. generation today have no idea what it was like, when we were growing up seeing these amazing monsters.
I would love to see a modern version of this truck built. The same wheel set up and cab but a gas fed burner and the best materials and most advanced steam engine. Just to see what it could do. I know steam engines can make tons of power. The trick to them is keeping the heat in.
@@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606 Because steam engines can be very small and still make an insane amount of power. Never going to be a sports car but it could be a commercial truck. With modern tech we might be able to make it burn cleaner than a diesel but make similar or more power. When steam powered trucks were built technology for burners and insulation were WAY worse than they are now but they still made a ton of power with tiny engines. I have no idea if they could really compete with a modern diesel but it would be neat to see what could be done.
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.

Ya operate a steam lorry ya say?
Ya… I do.
Wat’s it take then.
Coal miner’s lungs, nerves of steal, and a cast iron bum.
Give it a go, see how ya like it!
Na… I’m good.
Oooh arrr! Yu’r missen out’a life. Live dangerously!

I 😍 this video, because i drive 18wheels 80,000 pounds, everyday. The old days make you appreciate things. Thanks for making the video. ☺
1:10 i thought you were going to feed it with breads 😂😂😂
amazing machine, love the sound of that steam engine.
Beautiful machine. Right at the end she looked like a bug spewing out lava haha, verry cool
This thing is amazing, I love looking at it.
Ооооу намбы такое чудо техники в деревню ! А то бензин сегодня дорогой !🤓👍
С берёзой нет проблем, заброшенные пашни ею поросли.
у нас в 30х в НАМИ занимались такими грузовиками, только на дровах планировали кататься по Сибири. Но не взлетело, дрова много места занимают и хуже угля горят, эффективность низкая получается, и расстояния побольше чем в Англии.
@@wrtltable Сентинел модели VBT 1933 года был технически более совершенен и имел автоматическую топку тем самым не отвлекая шофера от управления машиной. экземпляр был приобретен НАМИ в 1936 году для исследования рускими учёными.
И спалить,всю округу к ебеням))
9:26 whistle makes it 🔥
That’s a nice looking steam wagon Mr. Richard!
We built those vehicles under license in Skoda Pilsen in twenties....Some served after the war regularly and some are in museums till today..Great British Engineering...
Like si vienes del canal UN POCO DE TODO.

We have found the world’s biggest moonshine steel
What beautiful piece of machine..
loved it
This is by far my favorite video. My grandpa was a oil field welder and made things for himself and other people. Now the 21 century the whole planet wants to go shopping 365 and party and fill the land fills. Dont make anything for yourself any more, if you dont have the credentials on paper, just buy it, as my mexican friend would say, just buy it and if it breaks throw it away and buy another one.!🤥
that is awesome, well done lads keep her lit aha.
for some reason, every time i see a steam engine it gives me chills thru my spine. i must appreciate the effort of these people for keeping these pioneer machines alive. generation today have no idea what it was like, when we were growing up seeing these amazing monsters.
Beautiful video, loved it.
Awsum video and your wagon is fab well done
14:17 If that was axle-driven instead of chain-driven, that truck would bite into the ground with its wheels...
I'd love one of these mad machines
Классный самовар - даже не знал, что такие были в ходу!
Wow what a marvelous pice of machinery you have sir.
11:33 Somewhat large turning circle! :O
They can turn much tighter but no power steering so I suspect the driver was just saving his arms.
I would love to see a modern version of this truck built. The same wheel set up and cab but a gas fed burner and the best materials and most advanced steam engine. Just to see what it could do. I know steam engines can make tons of power. The trick to them is keeping the heat in.
Especially power steering!
What’s the point of it if it’s going to burn gas? Seems to me what makes a steam engine so useful is it can burn cheap fuels like coal and wood.
@@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606 Because steam engines can be very small and still make an insane amount of power. Never going to be a sports car but it could be a commercial truck. With modern tech we might be able to make it burn cleaner than a diesel but make similar or more power.
When steam powered trucks were built technology for burners and insulation were WAY worse than they are now but they still made a ton of power with tiny engines.
I have no idea if they could really compete with a modern diesel but it would be neat to see what could be done.
@@plaid13 ACE 3000 was a program in the 1980s to build a modern coal fired steam locomotive. You’d likely be interested in learning about it
@@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606 kind of interesting but coal isnt a good fuel.
science & enginnering is the most beautiful thing
It looks like a happy truck with the ashtray opened!
