In the 1700s, James Watt caused a revolution in transportation<em> by improving steam engine technology.</em>
He was a Scottish inventor and mechanical engineer. He made improvements on Thomas Newcomen's steam engine that was patented in 1698 and widely in use at the time of Watt's birth ( 1736).
It all started when Watt was given a model Newcomen engine to repair. He realized it was very inefficient and he began to find ways to improve its performance. He designed a separating condensing chamber for the engine to avoid huge losses of steam. He patented his improvements in 1769.
A unit of measurement of electrical and mechanical power -<em> the watt</em> - is named in his honor.
<u>London Underground Railway was a huge success because of the following reasons I'm telling you ---</u>
1. The <u>population</u> of London <u>increased</u> dramatically because many people migrated from villages to the city in search of work.
2. People of the city were <u>accommodated outside the city</u> in family cottages, while the <u>industrial places</u> where they worked were <u>located on the inside</u> of London.
3. Some form of transport was needed so that people could commute from home to work and back home, and the Underground Railway helped in that a lot, because it was the only mode of transport which <u>carried a large number of people in a short span of time</u>.
4. Although the railway was discouraged earlier because people complained of suffocation, it became a huge success because it was <u>the only way of connecting their homes with their workplace</u>.
Hope I helped!
