From Our Editor

"I am conscious that our readers will have a very broad interests associated with steam cars and their development and obtaining the right balance of editorial content is challenging. Steam Car World will cover regular reports on tours and rallies. It will feature club members and their cars worldwide and regular workshop reports on restorations and new projects. Above all I intend to live up to the title and make Steam Car World a truly International magazine and most essentially a 'good read'.

Incorporating Steam Car World with the legacy of Light Steam Power is of course very exciting and when we have been able to index the huge amount of published and un-published works from J.N Walton. I look forward to being able to re-publish some of his work and also some of the remaining un-published work.
All in all, it will make Steam Car World an excellent magazine for all those interested in the development of steam cars from their earliest beginnings to present day projects". - Stuart Gray

How to Submit an Article

Please send any items for the magazine or website to the Editor. (as above)
If your are thinking about writing an article then a single A5 Magazine page contains approx 400 - 500 words. Where possible it is very helpful if you can send in text contributions via email (that way we don't have to copy them out word for word!!). However are long as your handwriting is legible we are happy to receive anything.

To maintain a high quality, photographs should be no smaller than 7” x 5”. Photographs sent by email should be sent as unmodified high-resolution jpeg attachments please. We can clean up, re frame and lighten up photos with the aid of technology so please don't worry if you think the photo is a little poor - send it in and we can see what we can do.

Also just because we haven't done 'that kind of thing' before don't hold back. We are always open to new ideas and welcome any submissions.
If you need any help sending material in please feel free to contact either the Editor or Company Secretary for help.
We look forward to hearing from you.
