Re the black smoke, I think it burns oil rather than coal.

This needs to be inspiration for the next action/fantasy film

[Rainhill1829]

@EthanCollier01 you wouldnt know how many where produced?

[EthanCollier01]

@Rainhill1829 Its a Daniel Best steam engine, he joined up with "Holt" and with that they founded "caterpillar, inc", what it is today. The engine itself was comeletely unique and revolutionary in its design, the vertical boiler as you noticed and the "Trike" wheels. also the BIG water tank in the front

[Rainhill1829]

@se7en1976 naa thats smoke from the fire, the black is a better smoke as it is unburnt carbon, instead of carbon dioxide which is made of burnt carbon

@se7en1976 Are you joking or what? Steam is NOT BLACK, it's smoke of coal.

[frackcha]

@se7en1976 thats not steam, its the smoke from the fire box, its mostly soot, which will fall back to earth.... generally speaking, its the stuff you cant see that causes the problems.. ;)

[se7en1976]

How do they make the steam black? is black steam worse for the environment than white steam?
