Are steam trains using engines?

Yes, steam trains use engines. Steam locomotives are powered by a steam engine, which is a type of external combustion engine that uses the energy of steam to drive a piston. The steam is generated in a boiler and then directed to the cylinders, where it pushes the pistons up and down. This motion is then converted into rotary motion by a crankshaft, which drives the wheels of the locomotive.
