Coal Stove on an Old CSD Passenger Train, Luzna u Rakovnika, Bohemia (CZ), 2010

Coal Stove on an Old CSD Passenger Train, Luzna u Rakovnika, Bohemia (CZ), 2010
This was after I got on. As I've said already, CSD kept some very old fashioned passenger car technology until comparatively late in their history, with some wooden passenger cars from the 1940's being heated by coal stoves like this one. American and British trains stopped using these with the advent of steam heating in the 1880's and 1890's, as the combination of coal stoves and wooden construction was thought to constitute a fire hazard.
