The reference to Japanese Mining was interesting. Can list readers tell me if they are aware of any mining museums in that part of the World? My primary interest is in stationary and marine steam engines but Japan is an area I know nothing about. I am aware that they had a mining industry from at least the 1870s to which British made equipment was supplied but beyond that I know nothing. The only significant steam ship I know of is the pre-Dreadnaught, British built, Makishia (1904) but she is literally filled with concrete so it is not even possible to gain access to the engineering spaces.
