The Industrial Revolution - The Golden Age of Steam

I originally made this for a history project at school about 3 years ago. It depicts the progression of steam power through the time of the American Industrial Revolution.

You seem to have forgotten Trevithick,oh and the fact it ALL took off in Great Britain.Case did certainly no invent the traction engine either.

i had done this video when I was in seventh grade, so it might not be the most accurate video ever made. yes, the threshing era and steam power frenzy did take off in europe, but in this video, i was more or less describing the american industrial revolution, being that the two happened at different times. and i did not say case invented the steam tractor. he was the most successful producer of steam tractors and threshing machines in the u.s. he took what was already known, and inproved it.

smoke in steam engine was good, and not polluting environment, only a vapour in the air, gas and deisel engine runs efficiently and fast but i think this kind of engine makes the world in crissis like pollution and global warming...

Onnnnce again, i made this quite some time ago. I fully understand the sheer power of steam, and the benefits of what it can do. I operate 3 full sized Case engines and am a qualified engineer. Thanks for watching, anyways.
