@wowmikeworld: 90% of people don't know that steam trains don't run on coal. #SteamTrain #PublicSafety #Transportation #TrainSafety#foryou

Tenacious E. :

Coal isn’t the only fuel source. There’s oil, wood, and even propane.

fies :

Water is sprayed on coal during transport primarily to suppress dust and prevent spontaneous combustion. Coal dust is hazardous to health and the environment, and spraying water binds the particles to reduce airborne pollution and protect nearby communities. This practice also prevents spontaneous combustion, which occurs when friction between coal pieces generates heat, potentially igniting the coal. Water cools the coal and reduces the risk of self-ignition, especially in high-moisture or volatile coals like lignite and bituminous. The water is applied carefully to maintain an optimal moisture level of 6–8%, avoiding excess that could reduce coal quality. Spraying also stabilizes coal piles, prevents erosion, and reduces material loss during transit. In some cases, chemical additives are mixed with water to enhance dust control and moisture retention. While water may seem to dampen coal, it evaporates by the time the coal reaches its destination, leavingp no impact on its heating value. This method has been used since the 1920s and remains a standard practice in the coal industry. Overall, water spraying ensures safer, cleaner, and more efficient coal transport.

The best invention in Human history.

HopedDragon407 :

Can they use salt water or can it only use freshwater?

Aquamarine_231 :

I literally thought it was smoke

♠️𝓐𝓾𝓼𝓽𝓲𝓷 𝓕𝓲𝓮𝓵𝓭𝓼♠️ :

They don’t always use coal

Lee Mtz :

The only reason I’m here is because I’m gardening and I start to ask questions

TAM :

i.had.no.idea. now i get it, now i get why my 3 year old son is obsessed with trains lol

lemon man :

90% of power production is boiling water

JustCallMe_Joee :

sometimes i wonder how tf did we discover ts

Ian railway :

you mean we all know steam locomotives burn coal

Rawlinson Bloom kawal :

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh😳

chicken_in_a_top_of_rock :

this bro

diether Jeffrey :

I like this kind of video

Raphael Letter :

Good one TikTok keep reading my head

X5 :

just boil water 💧

Онестик Брестунев :

вместо очевидного любому человеку лучше бы рассказал почему хотя бы часть пара не конденсировали обратно в воду, охлаждающего воздуха хватило бы чтобы конденсировать большую часть пара.

Ian railway :

That's kind of like a vending machine operating it's motors

Iowa class brother :

not all steam trains, before the 4014 locomotive used coal, till it switched into oil

RENVEN the Siren :

They can burn oil
