A locomotive seen in the time stream.

A locomotive or train is a large self-propelled workhorse vehicle that was typically powered by steam, electricity or diesel, that was utilized for transporting freight or passenger cars along a railroad.

After Jonathan Archer restored a damaged timeline, a locomotive could be seen in the time stream as the timeline realigned itself. (ENT: "Storm Front, Part II")

Beverly Crusher's holodeck simulation of the Orient Express featured the locomotive, along with the rest of the train. (TNG: "Emergence")

Zefram Cochrane preferred taking trains because he disliked air travel (much less going into space). (Star Trek: First Contact)
