Steam trains fuck up the tracks, starts fires and pollutes like hell.... That's just extra character! They go Choo Choo and have cool exterior moving pistony-wheely parts!
Counterpoint: Look at this locomotive hauling freight up a hill like God intended
Second Counterpoint: electric-steam locomotives exist and every train should be pulled by one
Remembering an old model train layout that had steam trains powered by third rail, we should do the worst and most dangerous and also coolest electrification scheme possible and do this in real life
Everyone knows that steam trains are more authentic than electric trains, in the same way that vinyl records are more authentic than CDs
