    Although I am no engineer its a fascinating read for a number of reasons. Wardale clearly 'gets' the whole thing, why the steam loco is inefficient, why it was let down by its builders and operators and what its meant to do.

    I would be fascinated to see what he could do with a car

    If anyone is interested, I have an unused spare copy of the first print available. Try Camden first however!
