IEEC3 – Conference complete!

An initial short post to report that the 3rd International Early Engines Conference took place between Friday 22nd and Sunday 24th March 2024.

We were delighted to welcome delegates to the fantastic Summerlee Museum of Scottish Industrial Life, in North Lanarkshire. Home to a wonderful collection of objects, artefacts large and small reflecting the material, technical and social development of industry in Scotland, it is also the custodian of the remarkable Farme Colliery Newcomen winding engine.

In addition to the 3 day conference, the organising committee were pleased to arrange a pre- and post- conference tour programme on Thursday 21st and Monday 25th March.

We thank all attendees and the speakers, and particularly the support from our sponsors as well as the help and support of the staff at Summerlee in Coatbridge, in enabling the conference to proceed smoothly.

We will now move on to work on the production of Transactions from the Conference, as well as posting further information on the programme, a number of exciting announcements at the Conference, and some further details of the tours.

Thanks to all involved!

The IEEC Organising Committee
