Steeplecab

A steeplecab is a type of train engine with a big tall thing on top that looks like a steeple on a church. The steeple is where the train driver sits and controls the train. Steeplecabs were used a long time ago to help move heavy things like coal, wood, and other important goods from one place to another. They were usually powered by electricity and had big heavy wheels that could help the train move along the tracks. Today, steeplecabs are not used very much anymore because there are newer and more modern trains that can do the same job faster and more efficiently.
