1) they are made out of steel, which is one of the many varieties of iron: cast iron, nodular iron, chilled iron, wrought iron, ductile iron, steel, etc. all the same basic ingredients in varying proportions using different manufacturing procedures.

2) in the US, locomotives are rated in horsepower.
