A steam train carrying freight through the hills
The steam locomotive pulls its freight cars along curved railroad tracks. Rolling hills rise on the right side of the scene, while fluffy clouds fill the sky and smoke drifts from the locomotive’s chimney. The train, rails, landscape, and broad shapes of the clouds form a complete countryside railway scene.
How steam trains moved heavy cargo
A steam locomotive burns fuel to heat water, creating steam that drives pistons connected to its wheels. Freight cars can carry many kinds of goods, and curved tracks allow trains to follow valleys or travel around hills instead of climbing directly over steep ground. The smoke above an old locomotive may contain both exhaust and condensed steam.
