Name two of them. ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________

In the beginning right?
1) Steam power was generally new, and it, as many new things, were not stable, and could lead to explosions, etc.
2) After oil,etc came out, steam power really didnt work as well as oil, etc, and it was a lot more expensive
