Trevithick, a british engineer built the first steam locomotive in 1804
A locomotive (also called an engine) is a vehicle that provides the power to pull (or push) a train. As well as the locomotive, the train consist of the vehicles which actually contain what is being transported. These can be either freight wagons, or passenger carriages. Locomotives are classified depending on how they are powered. The first locomotives were steam powered (a 'steam engine'), modern locomotives are either powered by electricity or by a diesel engine (an 'electric locomotive' or a 'diesel locomotive'). A steam train is a train which is being powered by a steam engine. Some passenger trains have diesel or electric motors under the carriages and do not need a separate locomotive.
