    Ferry Steam Engine

    There are many many variations of steam engines for a ferry boat, canyou be more specific as to the boat? Propeller or paddlewheels? sidewheel or sternwheel? vintage? etc.

    I bet there are several books on this subject, try searching the web. I'll look for some titles.

    If you could be more specific, I have access to large amounts of information (or at least know where you can find it) on steam engines.
