What is the difference between a steam engine and a tank engine?

A steam engine is a broad term that refers to any engine that converts steam energy into mechanical work, often used in various applications like locomotives, boats, and industrial machinery. A tank engine, specifically, is a type of steam locomotive designed to carry its water and fuel in tanks mounted on the locomotive itself, rather than relying on a separate tender. This design allows tank engines to be more maneuverable and suited for short-distance or urban services. In summary, all tank engines are steam engines, but not all steam engines are tank engines.
