Bruce, I heard the 3 principles of plumbing are, "Hot on the left, Cold on
the right and shit don't run uphill."
Now that I no longer live in a house with steam radiators, which I loved,
thanks for telling me how they worked. Ruth

Now, generally it is desireable for condensate to flow downhill after the
trap (as in "any electrician will tell you all plumbers know just two
things: shit flows downhill and payday is Friday") to get back to the
boiler. There are some instances where the condensate is pumped uphill
using the pressure of the steam but this is problematic (see "water hammer"
and "flooded radiators").
