Answer:

Options B,C, and D, follows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Peter Cooper was a manufacturer, philanthropist and an inventor from New York City. In the year 1830, he designed and built the first steam locomotive in America which is known as the Tom Thumb locomotive. The invention of the coal-burning locomotive replaced the horse-drawn trains. Moreover, this steam locomotive was the first engine to be run on a common-carrier railway track. Cooper's locomotive was more practical for carrying coal, military supplies and mail.
