I love the steam engine stuff. I've become a huge fan of steam, and it's great to see so many toys in one place! I'm trying to build a multiple expansion engine from old junk weed eaters and a pressure cooker, and it's a blast. I'd love to see more of his steam collection :)

@spymasterwade They don't run completely silently. Most nuclear subs have noisy coolant pumps and turbo systems that run on exhaust that are pretty loud. some american subs have diesel electric nuclear steam systems that run with their coolant pumps secured and they have some more insulated engine stuff to run with les noise. They don't run completely silently unless they're purely battery powered. (I'm not a nuclear engineer, I'm a musician btw haha)

@shilohphoenix o gotcha but they run silently how is that

@spymasterwade nuclear reactors ARE steam. the nuclear reaction is very hot, that heats up the water, and that hot water heats up other water so there's not radioactive steam. The steam then powers the rest of the engine and such.

love the last line about people that only love supercars don't love cars. becuse there are somany cool cars out there, even an old everyday mans car from the 40's 50's 60's is a cool car. something that wasn't worth a whole lot back then like a 66 Volvo 122S small, quick, and really reliable with style to boot.
