*** About Steam Locomotives: Steam locomotives, an emblem of the industrial revolution, have captivated the imagination of historians and engineers alike with their majestic presence and complex mechanics. These powerful engines operated by burning combustible material—usually coal, wood, or oil—to produce steam in a boiler, driving the pistons that move the locomotive's wheels. Pioneered in the early 19th century, steam locomotives were the dominant railway vehicles for over a century before being replaced by diesel and electric engines. Their influence persists in cultural and historical contexts, symbolizing human ingenuity and the expansion of industrial societies.
