Locomotive power is a term used "to set things to travel usually bearing a load".
New railroad locomotives are AC electric diesel. Older ones were direct current. Different meaning. MUCH of generated power is used for magnetism to bond the drive wheels to the track. Remember old-timey steam locomotives? Slipping drive wheels? Sand to increase friction? Think those guys were more powerful than your everyday ATSF transcontinental? Yes the implications are clear. Newer locomotives have one hell of an inverter aboard.
