Methods of train locomotion differ widely depending on the use of the train. Inter-city trains like subways and some commuter rails are powered by electricity delivered through an third rail or overhead power line. Trains with larger loads and longer hauls will usually provide their own power by usually burning fuel. Regardless of power source, the train's engines reside on the train so that it is moving itself.
