The Age of Steam revolutionized transportation and industry, forever changing the world as we knew it. It all began with The Rocket, a groundbreaking locomotive designed by George and Robert Stephenson. This magnificent machine paved the way for the future of railways. At Darjeeling Train Station, a bustling hub during this era, one could witness the marvels of steam-powered travel. The timetable displayed arrivals and departures of trains that relied on steam to transport passengers and goods across vast distances. During the American Civil War, a Federal Steamer arrived at Madisonville under a flag of truce. This momentous event showcased how steam power played a crucial role in wartime communication and diplomacy. In another stroke of luck, scientists made an extraordinary discovery - electricity present in water vapor. This revelation opened up new possibilities for harnessing energy from steam to power various inventions. The Barrat brothers' forked hoe steam machine was among these innovative creations. Its efficient design allowed for improved agricultural practices while utilizing the power of steam. Monsieur Lotz from Nantes took inspiration from this progress and invented the traction engine or steam car. This invention marked yet another milestone in transportation history as it provided an alternative mode of travel powered by steam. Steam ploughing became increasingly popular during this period as well. Meticulously engineered machines like M. Fowler's Steam Plough revolutionized farming techniques by using powerful engines to till fields efficiently. Fowler's traction engine further enhanced these advancements in agriculture through its ability to pull heavy loads effortlessly across farmland. Farmers marveled at its strength and efficiency when compared to traditional methods. Other notable inventors also contributed their expertise to develop impressive traction engines during this age; M. Anjubaults', MM. Cail & Company's, and M. Durennes' creations were highly regarded within engineering circles for their ingenuity and reliability. As we reflect upon the Age of Steam, we are reminded of the incredible progress made during this era.
