In 1822. By 1825 the first train was developed as public transportation.
Robert Stephenson Invented The Rocket (Steam line train)
Newcomen, pioneered early steam engines, that were actually atmospheric engines and no good for transport. Richard Trevithick was the first to power a train by a steam engine, but it broke the rails. It was improved for normal use by George Stephenson, who is regarded as the 'father of railways'.
George Stephenson invented the first train 'The Rocket'
Improved communications and ease of travel.
James Watt didn't invent the rocket train, although that train did use a steam engine that was sort of invented by Watt. James Watt was credited with inventing the steam engine, which was actually invented by Thomas Savory (1700) and Thomas Newcomen (1705). Watt worked at improving Newcomen's model and made a lot of significant improvements in the 1760s and 1770s. George Stephenson is credited, sort of, with inventing the locomotive. He put a steam engine on a rail cart used for extracting coal from a mine in 1814. In 1825, he opened the first railway. His first "train" used a track gauge of 4'8 1/2" - which is still used today by 60 percent of the world's trains. The Rocket was built by Stephenson and his son in 1829. It cruised at a whopping 29 mph.

not from scratch but helped improve it
he created the first train (steam train).
It was called Puffing Billy, and is the George Stephenson Museum in Newcastle.
