Steam locomotives are extremely inefficient compared to diesel and electric locomotives. In addition, they are costly to maintain. In the US, many, and most likely most, steam locomotives that are still in use require people that work with little or no pay, as volunteers to simply enjoy being able to be a part of the steam railroad. Some maintenance (such as boiler inspection and repair) requires highly specialized people that are becoming rare in the US, making this costly in many cases. So, when you see a steam locomotive at the front of a train, you most likely need to thank a few dedicated people that want to keep them going.
Some can carry over 90 people.

There are levers used on trains, but how many and what type will depend on what type of train and what types of cars on in the train. Steam trains used many more levers than typical trains today. This is because there are other mechanical, elctrical, and electronic devices to assist today.
