Best Answer

Although James Watt was the first to patent a "steam locomotive", it was US's John Fitch who first made a working model, and it was England's Richard Trevithick who in 1804 built the first full-scale steam locomotive that actually could pull a train.

The first electric train developed more or less naturally from the electric tram that was invented by Werner von Siemens in 1881. The first oil-engined diesel locomotive was invented and designed by Herbert Akroyd Stuart in 1896, but the design now used in most diesel engines was designed in 1914 by Hermann Lemp, a GE engineer in the US.
