This is a new one to me, you can read up something in site: http://www.aviation-history.com/articles/nuke-american.htm. However it does not give what you have asked. I doubt if more than one test bed reactor engine was built. You could try the author of this article Paul Colon, rcolonfrias@Yahoo.com, if this address is still valid
The URL you give contains the correct answer. Yes, you are right they were only static test bed engines and could not have flown as built. But they were operating Nuclear powered Jet Engines with compressors and turbines (adapted from an off the shelf production GE Jet Engine). They completed testing in 1963 before the Atmospheric Test Ban Treaty shut down the program. If the program had continued they were ready to begin design of flyable engines.
Most records about Nuclear Powered aircraft are classified, just like the Nuclear Submarines. The United States has only published one record of a Nuclear Powered aircraft. The program was cancelled in 1958, due to complications.

Well, to my research there hasn't been any nuclear bombs, Aussie has built.
The PLA navy has more than 225,000 personnel and is thought to have as many as 70 submarines, 10 of them nuclear-powered
Steam powered engines were in many different uses in the 1800's. In locomotives, ships, and tractors and stationary engines in factories. I've never heard of them called anything but 'steam engine' .

That depends on the power rating of the reactor.
The Wright brothers built and flew a powered aircraft in 1903. However many people still dispute that they were first to do so.
Nuclear power provides about 19 percent of total electricity, but when you use electricity you are not aware where it has come from
There are no nuclear powered planes, and the only nuclear powered ships and subs in the US are in the Navy so use naval ports. The UK Navy has nuclear subs and these use a base in Scotland. Russia has naval ships and subs, and also nuclear ice-breakers, but I do not have port information, though they probably use Murmansk and other Arctic ports.
between 10,000 and 50,000.
Many golf carts use gas powered 4-cycle 300 cc engines. (Can vary from 200cc to 400cc.) Some use electric engines ranging from about 48v to about 72v.
