Museum ships preserve most major propulsion stages

Do Britain's museum ships preserve examples of every major propulsion type since sail?

They preserve most major stages, although some minor propulsion variations are missing.

The question assembles Great Eastern, Warrior, Caroline, Belfast, Britannia and other preserved ships into a technological sequence. The collection captures most major propulsion stages since the transition from sail, though some minor systems and variations are absent. The answer suggests a useful museum-study approach: compare surviving hulls as a distributed material history rather than viewing each ship only within its own career.
