Notes
The steam pushes pistons back and forth, and rods turn that push into the turning of the big driving wheels. The first steam locomotive to pull a train on rails ran in Wales in 1804, and for more than a hundred years steam trains carried people and goods around the world.
The engine puffs smoke from its chimney. Tap it to blow the whistle: a jet of white steam shoots up from the whistle and a big cloud billows from the chimney. Pick the color of the engine in the Splash tab.
