There isn't one coal is burnt in the train which heats the water turning it into stream which is pushed through a number of tight pipes building pressure to delivery drive to the wheels.
Answer 2- A 'steam train' is a train which is being hauled by a steam powered engine.
- A coal train is a train carrying coal. It may be pulled by a steam engine, and so also be a 'steam train', but modern trains are usually hauled by diesel or electric locomotives, and will not be steam trains.
The difference between old and new trains is in their running gear and method of propulsion. Old trains used coal and steam while modern trains use diesel engines to power electrical motors.

steam boats and steam trains use coal power
Steam coal.
Steam coal
Only (some) steam engines used coal. It was burnt in a boiler to heat water to steam.
New trains are not built to be coal powered. However there are still some steam trains run and maintained by amateur enthusiasts.
Coal is still used in many steam engines today. Coal is not used on diesel trains or electric trains simply because it is not fuel for them. Electric trains and diesel trains are the most common trains in use, and not trains capable of using coal, because they are more efficent and much less costly to maintain.
Home heating, electricity and was traditionally used as fuel in steam engine ships and trains. Early trains all had a coal car to carry it.
Steam boat and trains love... missy KAT
steam trains had to take evacuees to the country side in the trains wich destroyed the coal industry in britain
No. A train that uses coal for power is a steam train, those trains referred to as 'bullet trains' usually use electricity as their motive power.
