1874 A steam brougham of very neat appearance was made by Mr. H. Mackenzie, Scole, near Diss, in 1874. The two cylinders were each 3.75 in. diameter and 4.5 in. stroke. Power was transmitted by gearing from the crankshaft to the countershaft, and thence by pitch chain to the driving axle, the ratios being 6 to 1, and 13 to 1, to produce the two speeds. A "Field" type of vertical boiler, 2 ft. diameter and 4 ft. high, was used, intended for working at 135 lbs. pressure per square inch. The driving wheels were 4 ft. diameter. A single steering wheel was actuated from the inside of the carriage. Four passengers could be accommodated inside the vehicle. [3]
