Where does a steam locomotive get its energy from?
Most steam locomotives are powered by coal, but some types burn wood or oil. The fuel is burned in a firebox to boil water. The steam is fed to pistons that power the drive wheels via large crank rods. A few experimental locomotives used the steam to run a turbine instead of pistons. Some locomotives burn peat or farm waste such as field cuttings. Switzerland even built a steam locomotive that got its power from an overhead electric line.

What did the first train look like?
Trains were first powered by steam locomotives that created it's own steam using fire and water. The locomotive looked very basic, with allot of the mechanisms exposed, kind of "Naked". A train in the truest sense is made up of an engine called the locomotive, and the rail cars that are pulled or pushed by the locomotive. So the first trains looked pretty lightweight when compared to the ones operating today. As materials they used to construct the locomotives, rail cars, and the rails themselves improved this allow them to haul heaver loads. So things got bigger very quickly, going from lightweight to heavyweight.
