James Watt did not invent the steam train. The steam train was developed by George Stephenson in 1814. James Watt did, however, pioneer improvements to the steam engine, which eventually led to the development of steam-powered locomotives.

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?


Who came up with the idea of the steam engine?

We don't know who came up with the idea, but the first commercially-successful steam engine was developed and built by Robert Fulton. Steam-powered machines were known to the ancient Greeks, but they did not harness the power in noticeably useful ways. Yes, Zbw is correct about the greeks, but modern steam power is derived from James Watt seeing a kettle boil on the fire & recognising power which could be harnessed.... or is that apocryphal ?
