The strange thing is that I know several drivers of steam engines and they always refer to the engines as 'she'.

Quite right, no machine be it a train, a ship, or a car should be called she, that suggests SHE is a bitch to work with and let's be honest most of us can get on better without the tantrums, mechanical failure is so much simpler.
