RMHEWRYR–A traction engine is a self-propelled steam engine used to move heavy loads on roads, plough ground or to provide power at a chosen location. The name derives from the Latin tractus, meaning 'drawn', since the prime function of any traction engine is to draw a load behind it. They are sometimes called road locomotives to distinguish them from railway locomotives – that is, steam engines that run on rails.

RM2E0NB37–An old engraving of a Victorian ‘road locomotive’ made by Ransomes, Sims and Jefferies of Ipswich, Suffolk, England, UK. It is from a mechanical engineering book of the 1880s. This ‘self-moving engine’ is a lightweight version as road locomotives were designed for heavy haulage on the public roads. They were usually larger than the normal traction engine and were fitted with three-speed gearing. They were also sprung on both front and rear axles. An extra water tank was fitted under the boiler so that greater distances could be travelled. They could pull loads of up to 120 tons.
