I heard a friend once define “steampunk” as “the vision of the future through Victorian eyes”. Since I first heard the term about a decade ago, it’s surprising how much steampunk imagery and art is running around out there. We’ll sometimes look at something and describe it as “steampunky”.
But nothing beats the real, live steampunk we saw at the British National Railway Museum in York, UK back in August. It still amazes us just how far engineers actually took steam technology, and in the steampunk world, that technology is still evolving. So for today’s blog, to wet your steampunk appetite, enjoy some of our more steampunky pictures captured in York.
