I visited a locomotive museum in Calera, AL and saw a steam powered rail
yard engine built before 1950 that did not generate it's own steam. It
had a high pressure steam vessel which was filled will high pressure
steam daily from a steam generating plant. On that steam charge it could
run 1/2 to 3/4 of a day before having to be recharged. Similar in
principle to a compressed air powered vehicle. The point here is that
the principle of compressed steam or air works for driving a vehicle and
the source does not have to be on board the engine itself. Fueling time
is another matter. But this proves the point
