A shovel is a tool used for throwing coal from the steam locomotive's tender into the firebox, to produce heat and power the locomotive. Before operating the steamer, player have to buy it in any Shop.

Three versions of the shovel exist - regular, golden, and expert.

Types

Regular

The regular shovel is your plain old steel locomotive shovel, taking 2 shovel fulls in non-vr to fill the firebox. It can be purchased for $250 in any shop.

Gold

The Gold Shovel is engraved with fancy carvings and takes only 1 shovel full to fill the firebox. It can be purchased for $20,000 in shop at Goods Factory

Expert

The expert shovel is smaller and does not fill the firebox as much as the other two, allowing for finer control of how much coal is used. It takes 6 shovel fulls to fill the firebox. It can be purchased for $5,000 in shop at Goods Factory.
