traction-enginen.

Etymology: Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈtraction-ˌengine.

A steam-engine used for drawing heavy loads along an ordinary road; a road-engine (commonly as distinguished from a locomotive or railway-engine). Also a similar engine used in agricultural work, e.g. for hauling the apparatus for thrashing to the required place, and then (as a stationary engine) driving the thrashing mechanism; or as a stationary engine for hauling a gang of ploughs across a field.
