The first diesel train was invented in the early 20th century, with the first successful diesel-electric locomotive built in 1912 by the German company MAN. This locomotive was designed by engineer Rudolf Diesel, who had developed the diesel engine. The use of diesel engines in trains became more widespread in the 1920s and 1930s, leading to significant advancements in rail transport.

Train was invented first.
Rudolf Diesel invented the first diesel engine in 1893. The first car to offer a diesel engine was the Citroen Rosalie produced in 1933.
The first train was invented in 1814,and the first car was invented in 1672. So, the car was first invented.
Rudolf Diesel invented the Diesel engine in 1897 (which is why it is called the "Diesel Engine"), but i do not know if he was the first person to use it in an automobile or not, though I believe he was.

Although James Watt was the first to patent a "steam locomotive", it was US's John Fitch who first made a working model, and it was England's Richard Trevithick who in 1804 built the first full-scale steam locomotive that actually could pull a train. The first electric train developed more or less naturally from the electric tram that was invented by Werner von Siemens in 1881. The first oil-engined diesel locomotive was invented and designed by Herbert Akroyd Stuart in 1896, but the design now used in most diesel engines was designed in 1914 by Hermann Lemp, a GE engineer in the US.
George Stepehenson invented the first successful steam train.
