For years I was unaware of the growing curiosity that our little factory has. The Steam Engine and Water Pump both use Steam directly as a power source. On an unremarkable corner in the small town of Jeannette, PA sits a small. Steam is transfered away via Steam Pipes above ground or in the Steam Pipe map layer. By the 20th century, the steam engine was widely used in industrial plants, locomotives, and ships. During the steam era the company built a mixture of rod and geared locomotives, particularly tank models of the former. Parsons came up with the first steam turbine in 1880. The Davenport Locomotive Works was a manufacturer of small switcher locomotives, similar to the Whitcomb Locomotive Works, whose earliest history dates to the first years of the 20th century. Almost half a century later, the first steam-powered automobiles were invented. 1800, most people in towns probably bought coal to heat their homes and cook.

We also recognize the historical and ongoing injustice often faced by Indigenous peoples and communities, both within London and across Canada. The Steam Generator produces Steam by using 1 Water, 1 Fuel, and 1 Work Unit. In time, these steam engines were used in powerboats and railways in 18, respectively. Fossil fuels, steam power, water power, cotton industry, labour, space. With steam power, factories came to town, drawing from the expanding working classes of the city to.
We are grateful for this land, though we must recognize that it was stolen from the Indigenous peoples who originally lived on it. It models an engine used to drive factory machinery. For countless centuries Indigenous peoples have been stewards of these lands, sharing the natural resources and only harvesting what was needed for their sustenance. It is in this spirit that we acknowledge that the community we call London and Middlesex County is situated on the traditional Indigenous territory of the Anishinaabe, Attawandaron, Haudenosaunee and the Lenape peoples. London Community Foundation is committed to working towards reconciliation and to supporting the recommendations of Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
