a electric train is faster than a steam engine
nowhere coz an electric train doesnt have a steam
Steam, diesel, and electric.
It takes pressurized steam to move the Pistons in a steam train. It takes a generator to produce electricity to power the motors on his (trucks) wheels on an electric train.
The Gautrain can carry up to 1,200 passengers per train set during peak hours.
A steam engine requires water to be heated to produce steam. This steam is used in pistons to produce movement, as in a steam train. An electric engine can produce the same energy, as in an electric car, and is far less bulky than a steam engine.
Generally speaking electric trains don't make smoke.
Here are some links to images of the gautrain because I cannot copy the images directly.

If the wind wasn't blowing and the train was moving it would blow south. If the train was stopped and the wind was blowing east the steam would be blowing east. Because the train is moving and the wind is blowing it would be moving both to the south and the east. diferent answer by another person me... An electric train does not have steam!!!!!!!
