There are 2 reasons why they stopped operating, these reasons are: 1. many were growing weary of these ships due to the fact that they always sunk and, 2. New tecnology was being invented and the steamship was too old for it's time, it had to move on and became discontinued. The same thing happened with the coal trains (well, for #2 that is).

When did steamships stop operating?
Steamships did not completely stop operating at a specific point in time, but their prominence declined significantly with the advent of diesel and electric-powered vessels in the mid-20th century. By the 1950s and 1960s, most commercial and passenger steamships had been replaced by more efficient engines. However, some steamships continued to operate for specific purposes, such as tourism and museum displays, well into the 21st century. Today, steam-powered vessels are primarily found in niche markets and as historical attractions.
