then go for it! learn physics, mechanical, chemical, electrical engineering! learn why it works and what is possible. then make us proud and come up with something that no body thought of! 16 is a perfect age to go beyond your class mates.
To find it, go to the HLJ hobby store site and search on "steam" with the company name "Gakken" and you should find it. This should be in every science toy shop in the world!
Perhaps the best-known and best-selling steam car was the Stanley Steamer, produced from 1896 to 1924. Steam cars dropped-off in popularity following the adoption of the electric starter, which eliminated the need for risky hand cranks to start gasoline-powered cars. The introduction of mass production by Henry Ford, which hugely reduced the cost of owning a conventional automobile, was also a strong factor in the steam car's demise as the Model T was both cheap and reliable.

@ comments regarding what can it be used for.
If you make a big enough steam engine you can connect it to a car alternator whcih will charge a car battery.
you can then connect an invertor to the battery and run your TV laptop ect...
steam is the new black.
