I will see if dodgerydoings are covered in the Brook Motors little red book. If so I will send you a copy (I have had rather an Ebay blitz looking for a first edition). Otherwise you will have to give my a day or two to bone up on the electric version. I have a mind that we should stick to the steam version until we have some plumbers who did their tickets in post Fleming era.

The Mississippi steamers did the musik adequately with a calliope but I can barely imagine the ire of Chief suffering from condenseritis when the pipes were 'struck up' (to coin jargon).

(Or were they puffers and cared not for feedwater consumption?)
