Edison was the first to build and run a power station, on a small scale but supplying a number of consumers
How many people are needed to work at a coal power plant depends on the size and age of the plant, among other things.
Most coal is used in the production of electricity by burning the coal to heat water to power steam turbines that run generators.
it is in the dictionary
Steam produced by heating water with the coal's heat energy spins the turbine of a coal-burning power plant. The high-pressure steam flows through the turbine blades, causing them to turn and drive the generator that produces electricity.
Coal Power plants are cheaper to build.
A coal burning power plant uses thermal energy from burning coal to create steam. The steam then powers a turbine which generates electricity through a generator.
A thermal power plant can use various fuel sources besides coal, such as natural gas or oil, to generate electricity. This gives it more flexibility in fuel selection compared to a coal power plant, which is limited to using only coal as its fuel source.
In a coal burning power plant, the first energy transformation that occurs is the chemical energy stored in the coal being converted into thermal energy through combustion. This thermal energy is then used to produce steam, which drives turbines to generate electricity.

You don't list the waste problems, so how can I answer? However radioactive waste is not a problem for a coal burning plant
The power varies, but sizes in the range of 2000 to 3000 megawatt are common.
The trains themselves do not cause pollution, but the source of the power such as a coal burning power plant does.
