    Then think about the Lydia Eva and Mincarlo Trust who have recently returned Lydia Eva to steam. It is that last remaining steam herring trawler and lives at Lowestoft and Yarmouth.
    But it costs £1000 in coal to fire her up and £3000 in coal to switch ports.

    Heh, makes you think. If it was around today, the daily coal bill for the Titanic would be in the region of £120,000. :smt078
