Raymond Loewy, born in Paris, became America's most famous industrial designer. He took everyday objects and made them beautiful. Some were rather big, like the way he transformed stodgy locomotives with big stacks into things of immense streamlined beauty...
Welcome to The Coal & Power Update! 🚂
We are moving ahead at full steam (ha!), introducing brand-new mechanics, new locomotives, new facility buildings, new freight cars... plus bug fixes and improvements.
Check out the full patch notes on Steam!

Trevithick’s locos (& many other inventions eg world’s 1st steam road car) didn’t catch on, but his ideas did. He died penniless. So as we approach 2025 & celebrate George Stephenson as the father of railways, maybe remember Richard Trevithick: as the father of steam locomotives.

🚂 I like Siemens Vectron locomotives
😊 What about you?

#OnThisDay 6th October 1829: the Rainhill Trials began! Organised by the Liverpool & Manc Rly (who’d planned to run cable-hauled trains) to test locomotives, 10 machines were entered, 5 competed: 4 were a bit shit, so Rocket won. Here’s me & @AntCoulls doing an selfie with Rocket
Les futures rames Intercités AMLD (automotrices moyenne et longue distances), livrées de 2023 à 2026, doivent remplacer les vieilles voitures Corail et les vieilles locomotives électriques BB 15000 et BB 26000 âgées d'une quarantaine d’années et en fin de vie. @CAF_France
@InterurbanE I was fortunate to have a taken a cab ride when it was at Niles Canyon. It will always be one of my two favorite Pacific type locomotives.
(The other engine that holds the title is ATSF No. 3415.)

Thank you all for your lovely suggestions! A great place to look back to for ideas
Here are some favorites: Locomotives with facial hair, more stories about humans, IRL events, an ongoing series vs single stories, experimenting with tone, or more productions for customs/replicas https://t.co/saf8XSTY2C
Huge thanks to Toon-E-Artist for tutoring me on how to draw locomotives! I started off by drawing a Black 5 but it quickly turned over to drawing someone familiar! I wanted to depict the younger, more arrogant Henry we see in Season 1-2. So I hope it fits!

for those who just followed me, my Twitter feeds would be full of simping for anthropomorphic firearms and locomotives depicted as anime girls
AAA! @dulcifer666 and me made a SHEEPY! This is Gordon Argyle. A Hebridean 4 horn sheep- he’s a train enthusiast and owns a model shop! The model locomotives he sells are a little peculiar though - they’re alive! LAMMY THANK YOU FOR MAKIN A SHEEP WIFF MEEE! I love this dude!
'The Collier' is my favourite of all the plates in George Walker's 'The Costume of Yorkshire,' (1813) featuring the Middleton Colliery and associated Railway near Leeds. It became the first to commercially use steam locomotives including the locomotive Salamanca (1812)
#ICYMI-Today's #GoogleDoodle celebrates Elijah McCoy (b. #OTD 1844), the Black Canadian-American engineer whose inventions improved the efficiency of locomotives & steam engines.
He is often cited as the inspiration for the expression, "The real McCoy"

I also sometimes talk about other interests of mine here, such as steam locomotives and things tied to them.
