There were, I think, still steam-powered road rollers when I was a boy. Steam-powered farm equipment had vanished though. Whereas sur le Continong I saw fields being ploughed with horses.
dearieme - I remember the rag and bone man having a horse and cart, but don't remember steam-powered road rollers even though I always called them steamrollers. I recall haystacks in fields though, they seem to have disappeared completely.

Just the thing for a London taxi, although Khan will soon be banning the burning of wood.
Sam - yes, it'll be pedal power in the end.
