@braeden.cianciott: Diesels may be the best in terms of modern technology but always will be shot down by the power of steam💪#steamengine #edit #trainedit #railroad
honestly, steam power is a lot stronger, and they're WAY cooler to see. if we go back to that, we could easily use sustainable fuel sources in them and do tons of work for less

remember. Steam Engine are 1 stroke engine. they ALWAYS produce torque

Steam is superior, idc what anyone says. All you need is water and fire and let her eat.

steam in general has more starting power and power overall, but diesels have lower maintenance cost, more fuel efficient and requires less crew, so oftentimes diesel is just cheaper even when running multiple units together then one more powerful steam engine which is why diesel is so prevalent and widely used

Steam will never lose in a world of who does it better, but lost in a world of who does it cheaper

Steam trains are more powerful, but railroads switched over to diesel because it was cheaper to run and lower maintenance

The power was never the issue, it was the maintenance

steam engines, no matter what they are (traction engines, locomotives, etc) theoretically have an unlimited amount of power, it just comes down to traction and how strong the couplings are between cars

steam is superior, diesels-operating costs and ease of maintenance won the war. I've seen a single cylinder 20HP steam traction engine pull a 84,000 lb semi up hill. amazingly powerful and simple.

A good steamtrain operator can make it do backflips if they really wanted to. But thats just it, Steam is very difficult to operate compared to Diesel Electric. If you run the steam engine wrong, you're burning more fuel than needed, which is terrible for the environment, Or you kill the fire and the train stalls.

Both are good, but Steam will always be on top. As long as that fire burns, we got a train that moves.

I think it would the coolest thing to be driving the challanger pulling 100 cars through the cold only wearing shorts and it’d start to struggle and flooring it just to feel the torque

People forget Steam has places to be. move or be moved!
