The steam engine, the use of steam has been percolating since old Chinese days of a toylike device filled with water and pipes coming out of its sides hung over a candle spinning like a top. Time enough man gets ideas how to use this and technology advances by the addition of ideas, technical capabilities, and trial and error. A crude steam device was built to pump water out of coal mines. The late 1700's a crude steam locomotive was invented and the first railroads started in the early 1800's with the first early steam engines, and it slowly grows from there. There is no one -definitive- date of a steam train being invented, but it sounds like the start of the application of a "steam locomotive" may have started about the late 1700's.
