What did thomas newcomen invent the steam train?

Oh, what a happy little question! Thomas Newcomen didn't invent the steam train, but he did invent an early steam engine called the Newcomen engine. This engine was used to pump water out of mines, which was a very important job at the time. Later on, other inventors like George Stephenson improved on this idea and created the first steam locomotives that pulled trains. Isn't it fascinating how one idea can lead to another and another, just like painting a beautiful landscape?

When did James watt create the rocket train?

James Watt didn't invent the rocket train, although that train did use a steam engine that was sort of invented by Watt. James Watt was credited with inventing the steam engine, which was actually invented by Thomas Savory (1700) and Thomas Newcomen (1705). Watt worked at improving Newcomen's model and made a lot of significant improvements in the 1760s and 1770s. George Stephenson is credited, sort of, with inventing the locomotive. He put a steam engine on a rail cart used for extracting coal from a mine in 1814. In 1825, he opened the first railway. His first "train" used a track gauge of 4'8 1/2" - which is still used today by 60 percent of the world's trains. The Rocket was built by Stephenson and his son in 1829. It cruised at a whopping 29 mph.
