The main fuel IS diesel fuel for both both trains and ships, most freight trains run on electric motors that are powered in most cases by diesel engined generators, while passenger trains are powered by diesel, or directly from an overhead power line, or electrified rail. Trains of course used to be powered by steam, fired by wood or coal.
old sailing ships obviously used to be powered by wind and/or manpower. Later they were powered by steam, usually coal fired, and then by diesel fuel.

It was favored for its high energy content and availability, powering steam locomotives and steamships. As technology progressed, coal was gradually replaced by oil and diesel fuels, but it played a crucial role in the industrial revolution and transportation.

What energy is used to power cars planes ships trains and factories?
Cars, planes, ships, trains, and factories primarily use fossil fuels such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel for energy. Additionally, electricity generated from various sources, including coal, natural gas, nuclear, and renewables, powers electric vehicles and trains. Some ships and trains also utilize liquid natural gas or biofuels. The transition to renewable energy sources is increasing, with more emphasis on electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles.
