The �steam age� had a much greater impact in England than it did in the rest of the world. The Americans flirted with the popular Stanley Steamer, but quickly turned to gas-powered engines. The Germans, inventors of the internal combustion engine, had little time for steam.
In England, however, there was a long love affair with steam engines, which were used for all types of vehicles and machinery-everything from ploughing to baling on farms to powering fairgrounds.
The Yorkshire company was renowned for its steam engines, producing more than a thousand steam engines, producing more than a thousand steam wagons between the years 1913 and 1932.
