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.
