How would steam locomotives continued to evolve, if it weren't for dieselisation?

they would be like "modern" steam cars
running on propane instead of coal, using steam generators instead of boilers and condencers intead of just spewing the steam out the top
look up the doble steam cars

Is there any more history on the electric steam train? All I know is that Switzerland used it for a bit during WWII due to wartime shortages.

Horrendous. Make it happen.

Look at the work Chapelon and Porta did post-WWII. Greater efficiency, improved combustion systems that allowed for less soot pollution, more fuel burnt and no railside fires. Chapelon himself conceived of a 150mph locomotive for usage on France's railways.

The 'steam' part was to be moved to a stationary plant, so called 'power plant' and using this alien technology called 'electricity' power was to be sent to the locomotive using copper wires.

From what I heard, it was a massive flop and nobody really uses it. Failed technology.

A real train should be battery electric, except the batteries power a boiler for a steam engine.

Could actually be done with small enough fusion reactor. What's the latest from first light fusion?
