I think the idea was for each country to have a train that truly represented that country. Diesels and electrics fill that role pretty much everywhere now. To be honest, they fill that role in Canada, too, so I'm not exactly sure why Pixel made Canada's train a steamer.

What's really interesting is that the train chosen actually is built in the USA, but the national engine for USA is a diesel. Go figure.
