[edit] Mr Who?

Is it too much to ask the inventor's name be mentioned? (Presumably it isn't a state secret.) Trekphiler 16:38, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

I think the Cornish boiler is attributed to Richard Trevethick and the multitubular boiler to George Stephenson. However, many other people were involved so it's hard to name a single inventor. Biscuittin (talk) 15:08, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
