This bimonthly was begun in the mid fifties by J. N. Walton who had taken over Steam Car Developments & Steam Marine Motors after the war. Walton's interest, persistance and tenacity made it preeminent in its field which filled the gap between modelmakers toy steam and the large commercial railway, marine and electricity generating plants. A move from the Isle of Man to Portugal and then to Loughborough, England, and a change to "Steam Power", as an attempt to broaden interest, simply discouraged the existing subscriber base, and publication ceased.

Some publications are still being offered in revision including a fine book on Doble Steam Cars, and an excellent encyclopedia on steam engines. Many reprints of historical brochures and drawing sets have been available, but the website running after 2005 is now gone and copyrights have been assigned to other parties. It may be that inquires to the original address will still be answered, but Mr. Walton is no longer active. [2010]
