Previous Next Up to OJB's Story Engines (7) We decided to take a short trip on the "Earnslaw" - the vintage steam ship that runs on Lake Wakatipu. Phillip was a bit scared about watching the engines running initially but once I coaxed him into the engine room he was fascinated and didn't want to leave again! Two stokers shovel coal into the boilers and keep the old machinery oiled and running smoothly. Passengers can get within touching distance of the engines and experience the heat and noise of being in the engine room. |
