Who is a "fireman"?
A fireman on a train is a worker responsible for managing the steam engine, particularly the fire that heats the water to create steam. This job was especially common in the past when trains were powered by steam. The fireman would shovel coal or another fuel into the firebox to maintain the right temperature and pressure for the engine to work properly. They also monitored the engine’s performance, ensuring it ran smoothly throughout the journey. Although the role has largely been replaced by modern engines, firemen were once essential in keeping steam-powered trains moving efficiently and safely.
