    Steam locomotives were the first self-propelled, mechanically powered rail vehicles and dominated rail transport from their inception until the middle of the 20th century. Steam locomotives were also responsible for the rapid development of transport technology as well as national and international trade. The steam locomotive is a symbol of the industrial age: without the transport of huge quantities of raw materials, energy sources (coal) and goods over land, which it made possible, the industrialization that progressed around the middle of the 19th century would not have been possible. With the advent of more modern drive technologies, steam locomotives were gradually replaced by diesel and electric locomotives due to their comparatively poor efficiency and high operating, maintenance and repair costs.

      The steam locomotive (short steam locomotive, as a metaphor also steam horse) is a type of locomotive that is powered by steam. In addition to the widespread standard design with a steam generator and piston steam engine with a crank drive chassis, there are special designs such as fireless locomotives, electric steam locomotives, gear steam locomotives, those with single-axle or turbine drives, condenser and high-pressure locomotives.

        Discarded steam locomotive on the station forecourt. You can even enter it and admire it from the inside.
