I have also come across references to the list of steam engines built
prior to 1800; I think it is cited in either Flynn or Church's
volumes in the History of the British Coal Industry series. I assume
it remains unpublished; if the authors could be persuaded to publish
it either on paper or even better, on a web site, I am sure it would
be a very valuable resource. Perhaps someone could do a little
lobbying?...
