Soame Steam Car

11/20/2016

 
In 1837 Samuel George Soame was born, becoming an agricultural engineer with a workshop in Norfolk, England. Although fitted with a steam engine, the Soame Steam Car was a smaller wooden, horse drawn looking type of transportation vehicle. The Soame Steam Car was used extensively around North Norfolk, England and was sold by Samuel's grandson in 1946. 

The Soame Steam Car was featured in the 1953 motoring classic, Genevieve. According to the Society of Automotive Historians, it was bought by Dick Joice in 1993. Jean, his widow, asked David King to restore the vehicle for the Holkham Bygones Collection based in Norfolk, England. 

Take a look at some very rare and great Soame Steam Car pictures below sent to us from Russell Yeamans!

Steam Cars From the Archives-Pearson-Cox

11/19/2016

 
Picture
Reprinted from The Light Car of March 31st 1915.

The vehicle we are about to describe is a small edition of the larger Pearson-Cox steam-driven automobiles, which have been well known on the market for some years past. One may, therefore, rest assured that the latest Pearson-Cox light steam car is not by any means an experiment in view of the experience which the constructors have accumulated in producing this type of vehicle since it first came in. In this firm's light steam car, the frame, axles, wheels, and springing system are of standard pattern, the same applying to the body, wings, running boards, and all parts external to the power plant itself.

The Virtual Steam Car Museum recently acquired this postcard showing President Taft's White Steam Car and were kind enough to send us a copy.

To the left you will see the front and back of the post card that documented this Steam Car. In the top photo, President Taft and his guests take a ride along the North Shore in his famous "White Steamer". This picture was taken at Beverly at the turn in the road just leading to the entrance of the Stetson Estate, where the president's house is located.
