Six other papers on Modern Steam can be found in the Proceedings of a Fedecrail conference held in Barcelona in May/June 1998 titled "Lectures on Steam Locomotive Operation in the 21st Century". The papers are as follows:
- Porta, L.D., XXIst Century Steam - The Day of Modern Steam Traction;
- Perez, J.O., Traccion a vapor moderna y sostenible - el escenario cubano (text in Spanish);
- Waller, R., Modern Steam in Revenue Service;
- Serchinger, R.W., Modern Steam Traction and the Protection of the Environment;
- Porta, L.D., Fundamental Principles of Steam Locomotive Modernization and their Application to Museum and Tourist Railway Locomotives;
- Waller, R., Steam Locomotive Components for Museum and Tourist Railways.
Note - in Aug 1977, Wardale presented a paper titled "The Steam Locomotive - Motive Power for the Future" to the South African Railways Engineering Society. Most of the content of this paper is covered in his later work "The Red Devil and Other Tales from the Age of Steam", however, having been written so much earlier, the author's mood is refreshingly upbeat in comparison. Furthermore, Wardale warns anyone reading the paper that it contains some fundamental errors which he only later became aware of.
The paper is in typescript form and covers 217 pages, and is not currently available on this website.
