did they have railroads in ancient rome?

Answer 1

In fact, horse drawn rail transport does date back to Roman times:

The earliest evidence of a railway found thus far was the 6 kilometers (4 mi) Diolkos wagonway, which transported boats across the Corinth isthmus in Greece during the 6th century BC. Trucks pushed by slaves ran in grooves in limestone, which provided the track element, preventing the wagons from leaving the intended route. The Diolkos ran for over 1300 years, until 900 AD. The first horse-drawn wagonways also appeared in ancient Greece, with others to be found on Malta and various parts of the Roman Empire, using cut-stone tracks.

Answer 2

No -- railroads (with steam engines) were invented in the 19th century. Horse-drawn railroads have been around since the 16th century.

Answer 3

Please note that recent archaeological finds indicate the Ancient Romans had a water clock, a computer like device, and significantly more complicated ocean navigation devices than was ever previously believed. There was a show on the History Channel about this (or I think it was the History Channel...).
