Contrary to what ID2573951383 thinks, trains are powered, dar, or they wouldn't be able to move. Most modern day trains are powered by a single car called a locomotive that pulls the rest of the train. Locomotives are typically powered by diesel although electric locomotives are also becoming popular. In the past locomotives were powered by steam.

There not many steam - powered trains still running A are B is?
To take a look as to whether to use 'There are' or 'There is' we need to look at the subject, ignoring the adjectives and adverbs. In this case 'trains'. We'll cut out everything else and look at the simplest form of that sentence - "There ____ trains". Trains is plural so we would use are. We can then add 'are' into the original sentence to get 'There are not many steam-powered trains still running'. Your answer is A.
